How to Change Your JAMB Email Address in 2025 (Step-by-Step Guide)

Are you trying to change your JAMB email address in 2025? Whether you’re updating your email on the JAMB portal, switching from last year’s registration details, or correcting a mistake, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.

In this article, we’ll explain:

• How to change your JAMB email address

• How to update the email address used for last year’s JAMB registration

• How to edit or reset your JAMB email

• Common questions from candidates trying to transfer details from the old JAMB portal to the new one

This solution is especially helpful for candidates who used the same email address for multiple JAMB registrations, such as using last year’s email for this year’s application.

We’ll also address frequently asked questions from previous JAMB candidates, particularly those applying to universities like UNILORIN, FUOYE, UNIPORT, and others—so be sure to read till the end!
