Writing JAMB is a phase, but going through the process of changing your course and institution through JAMB is another hurdle.
In the course of JAMB registration, many of us tend to put our initial course of study but upon the release of JAMB results, then a need on to change courses or institution become necessity judging from your inability to meet up the cut-off mark of your course required to land you admission in your preferred institution.

Pls.
265_Can ‘be admitted to study political and admin. Studies in Uniport
pls. i score 168 to study Medical Laboratory Science st Abia State University and cutoff mark is 180. is it possible to change course with this score?
No. Since you did not meet the JAMB cut off mark, there is no need changing course or institution. Your JAMB score would best fit in for any of the polytechnics in Nigeria
This is for my daughter. She coursed 216 in jamb to study medicine at Lasu but l know that chance is daisy. So am thinking of doing a change of course to OAU for her.Is that score viable for OAU? Then, aside from going to the centre where she wrote the exam, how else can we generate her RRR for payment
The truth is your daughter stands a higher chance of gaining admission to study Medicine at LASU than OAU because OAU’s cut off Mark is 200 while LASU is 180.
Procedures on how to generate remita code for payment
The first step to accomplishing this, is by visiting the application page of your institution.
Once the portal is ready, proceed and there you will see Make Payment On Remita Link – click on it..
Then click on “Pay with Remita”.
When you have done step 3 successfully, you are required to proceed and click on the ‘Submit and Generate Remita Payment Reference Button (RRR)’.
Once you have generated the Remita Payment Reference button, write down the displayed Payment Reference Number (RRR).
Go to Any Commercial Bank Branch to Make Payment.
After you have made a successful payment, go to the applicant Login Page and Login with Your Username and Password.
I really appreciate your prompt response.
You said we should visit the application page of our institution. Which one, is the Lasu in this case or OAU that we are planning to change to. And how soon can that be done?
whichever institution you are planning to change to. That’s OAU. But at this point, i would advice you do the change of institution in the CBT centre your daughter wrote her JAMB. It is faster and less stressful
Thank you so much for this piece of information.
God bless you.
You are welcome

Your JAMB score of 191 is not good enough to grant you admission into any federal or state university in Nigeria, if you work harder in your post UTME you could be given another course of study
Good day.
Please I scored 186 in jamb and I want to swap/ change institution to Ebonyi state university to study Nursing am I eligible for post utme?Please I need your guidelines on what steps to take.

Yea you are eligible for post UTME so long as you score 180 and above in your JAMB score. But I cannot guarantee you would be offered admission to study Nursing. Maybe a very good post UTME score would go a long way. Best of luck sis
