The only evidence that you can show to the school that you have been offered admission is the JAMB admission letter. The admission letter is an official letter carrying the JAMB logo and all your details of admission after you have been offered admission to a school.
The admission letter always comes in two formats. The first format, which is for institutions, usually has a watermark “For Institution Only,” and the second format, which is for the candidate’s consumption, has its own watermark as well, which is “For Candidate Only”. However, you can print any of them by yourself using your phone or laptop.
