JAMB Extends Change of Institution to FUNATO by One Week. The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has approved a one-week extension for candidates who want to change their institution of choice to the Federal University of Agriculture and Technology, Oyo (FUNATO).
The extension follows an official appeal by the FUNATO Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Jacob Babayemi, to give interested candidates more time to complete the process.
Why JAMB Extended the FUNATO Change of Institution Deadline
The Vice-Chancellor of FUNATO, Prof. Jacob Babayemi, formally requested additional time from JAMB to allow more candidates to switch their institution of choice to FUNATO.
In response, JAMB granted a temporary one-week extension for candidates to access the JAMB portal and complete their change of institution.
This extension is aimed at:
- Giving interested candidates enough time to act
- Reducing last-minute rush and errors
- Allowing parents and guardians to properly guide candidates
Who Should Use This Extension?
This extension is meant for:
- Candidates who want to change their first-choice institution to FUNATO
- Candidates who missed the earlier deadline
- Parents and guardians assisting candidates with admission decisions
If FUNATO is your intended university, this is your chance to make the change officially.
What Candidates Need to Do Now
During this one-week window, candidates should:
- Visit the JAMB portal
- Complete a Change of Institution to FUNATO
- Ensure all required steps are properly submitted
- Keep proof of the change for future reference
Candidates are strongly advised not to delay, as the extension is not open-ended.
Important Advice to Candidates and Parents
- Do not assume there will be another extension
- Complete the change as early as possible within the approved week
- Double-check all details before final submission
- Follow up on FUNATO admission updates after making the change
Missing this window could mean waiting for another admission cycle.
