The JAMB boss also disclosed that a mock UTME specifically designed for candidates below the age of 16 had been introduced.
According to him, the initiative was not for admission purpose but to allow underage candidates to test their abilities ahead of the exam.
To qualify for admission into any tertiary institution across the country, Oloyede said candidates must be at least 16 years old on or before September 30, 2025.
He, however, added that brilliant candidates under 15 years might be considered if they scored at least 280 in the UTME and perform exceptionally in their Senior Secondary Certificate and post-UTME examinations.
