Will jamb and school offer admission at the same time?
No
Just like the UTME candidates, DE aspirants may not be offered admissions at the same time by the universities and JAMB. One of the two parties may be faster.
The university may be quicker to update its list on the admission portal, while you’re yet to see any good news from JAMB.
JAMB, as well, might be faster to update the lists on her portal while you’re yet to see the same on the school admission portal.
In either case, there is no need to panic. It’s very usual to see one being faster in offering admissions before the other.
What you need here is PATIENCE. Wait for the other to offer you admission.
