JAMB CAPS: Why Your Status Still Shows ‘Not Admitted’ After Accepting Transfer

A JAMB candidate, Ter Sonter, has raised a concern that many others are currently experiencing on the JAMB CAPS platform. According to him, despite accepting a Transfer Approval offer, his admission status has remained “Not Admitted” for over a week.

“I accepted my transfer approval but it’s still showing not admitted for a week now,” he said.

This situation has left many candidates worried, especially those who believe the delay could affect their chances of gaining admission.

Here’s the Explanation

If you’ve accepted a transfer offer on JAMB CAPS and your status still shows “Not Admitted,” there is no need to panic. According to admission support sources, this is a normal process.

Once you accept the transfer:

• Your status will remain as “Not Admitted” for a few days
• Then it will change to “Admission in Progress”
• Finally, it will move to “Admitted” once the school confirms your details and sends your name to JAMB

This may take a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on when your school processes the final admission list.

What You Should Do Now

• Just be patient
• Keep checking your CAPS portal regularly
• Make sure you don’t reject the transfer or log out without confirming
• Once it changes to “Admission in Progress,” your admission is already being finalized

Final Word

As long as you accepted the transfer, you are on the right path. The delay is not a mistake. Give it some time, and your status will soon update.
