Meaning of JAMB CAPS Admission Status
1. Not Admitted on JAMB CAPS: This status is the general status for all candidates before school starts sending lists to JAMB, it makes student panic at all times of checking JAMB CAPS because some candidates interpret the status wrongly that admission will not be given especially when other candidates are seeing something different.
If you see this on your status, it does not implies that you will not be admitted, it only means that you have not yet been considered for admission, and if your school has not released all lists, you can still be hopeful that you may later be considered for admission.
2. Admission in Progress (AIP) on JAMB CAPS: When JAMB receives the list of candidates from JAMB, the status will change to “Admission in Progress” which means you have already been considered for admission, and admission will soon be given after full verification.
Candidates seeing this status should make sure that O’level’s result has successfully been uploaded on JAMB CAPS because it is possible for the status to change from Admission in Progress to NOT Admitted if JAMB noticed that O’level result has not been successfully uploaded by such candidate.
