JAMB CAPS Admission Status and What Each One Means
After checking their admission status, candidates may see different responses on JAMB CAPS. Each response indicates a particular stage of the admission process.
Admission Offered
An Admission Offered status means that JAMB has approved the candidate’s admission.
Candidates who receive this status can proceed to accept or reject the admission offer through the available JAMB process.
Candidates are advised to complete the acceptance process as required because the JAMB admission letter can only be printed after the admission offer has been accepted.
Admission in Progress
An Admission in Progress (AIP) status means that the Polytechnic has reviewed the candidate’s application and recommended the candidate for admission.
However, the recommendation is still going through the required approval process. This includes approval by the Head of Institution, after which the application proceeds to JAMB for final review.
Candidates whose status shows Admission in Progress should continue checking JAMB CAPS while waiting for the final admission decision.
Recommended
A Recommended status means that Federal Polytechnic Ohodo has considered the candidate for admission.
However, the candidate’s admission is still awaiting JAMB’s review and confirmation that the required admission criteria have been met.
Candidates with this status should continue monitoring their JAMB CAPS account for further updates.
Not Admitted
A Not Admitted status means that an admission offer is not currently being shown for the candidate.
This may occur when the candidate has not yet been selected or considered for admission. It may also appear if the school’s admission list has not yet been released for the candidate or if the application is still under review.
Candidates who see Not Admitted should continue checking their admission status because the status may change as the admission process progresses.
Pending
A Pending status means that the candidate’s admission application is still under review.
No final admission decision has been made at this stage. Candidates with a pending status should continue monitoring JAMB CAPS for further updates.
Admitted Candidates Can Accept or Reject Their Admission
Candidates who have been offered admission into Federal Polytechnic Ohodo are expected to accept or reject the admission offer through the approved JAMB process.
Candidates can complete the process through biometrics at an approved JAMB Computer-Based Test (CBT) centre or through SMS.
For candidates using the SMS option, the process involves sending ACCEPT or REJECT to 55019 or 66019 using the phone number registered with JAMB.
The registered phone line should have up to N50 in the main account. The stated process does not deduct the required charge from borrowed airtime or Xtra Credit.
Candidates should ensure that they use the phone number registered with JAMB when using the SMS option.
JAMB Admission Letter Printing Comes After Acceptance
Candidates who accept their Federal Polytechnic Ohodo admission offer can proceed to print their JAMB admission letter.
The admission letter printing stage therefore comes after the candidate has accepted the admission offer.
Candidates should ensure that they complete the admission acceptance process before attempting to print their JAMB admission letter.
How to Access JAMB CAPS on a Mobile Phone
Candidates checking their admission status on a mobile phone may experience difficulty accessing all the options available on JAMB CAPS.

Candidates experiencing this issue can switch their mobile browser to Desktop Mode.
