What If My UNIBEN Admission Status Says “Admission Still in Progress”?
Candidates whose JAMB CAPS status shows “Admission Still in Progress” should not panic.
This means the admission process is still being processed. Candidates should continue checking their JAMB CAPS account regularly, as the status may be updated.

If your JAMB CAPS admission status currently shows “Not Admitted,” you are advised to keep checking.
