General Admission Requirements
Applicants can enter through UTME or Direct Entry. Both routes require the relevant O’Level subjects; the difference is the additional qualification used for admission.
For UTME admission, you need to:
- Have at least five relevant SSCE or equivalent credit passes.
- Meet the subject requirements for your chosen course.
- Satisfy the applicable JAMB score and UTME subject combination.
- Complete the university’s application and screening process.
The university’s general rule allows O’Level results from not more than two sittings. Course-specific conditions also apply.
O’Level Requirements by Course
Your five credits must include the subjects required for your programme. Having five credits in unrelated subjects will not meet the entry requirements.
The following breakdown follows the university’s programme entry requirements.
Management and Social Sciences
| Course | Required O’Level credits |
|---|---|
| Accounting | English Language, Mathematics and three relevant commercial or social science subjects, such as Accounting, Commerce and Economics |
| Business Administration | English Language, Mathematics and three relevant business or social science subjects |
| Criminology and Security Studies | English Language, Mathematics and any three of Economics, Government, History, Literature in English, Biology, Geography or Religious Studies |
| International Relations | English Language, Mathematics, Government or History, and two other relevant subjects |
For Business Administration, the university gives Economics, Financial Accounting, Marketing, Commerce and Business Methods as examples of relevant subjects.
The Sociology entry on its programme page specifies English Language, Mathematics, one of Economics, Geography or Government, and two other relevant subjects.
Science and Computing
| Course | Required O’Level credits |
|---|---|
| Computer Science | English Language, Mathematics, Physics and two other relevant science subjects |
| Cyber Security | English Language, Mathematics, Physics and two other relevant science subjects |
| Information Technology | English Language, Mathematics, Physics and two other relevant science subjects |
| Software Engineering | English Language, Mathematics, Physics and two other relevant science subjects |
| Microbiology | English Language, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics |
| Physics with Electronics | English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and one other relevant science subject |
| Science Laboratory Technology | English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology |
Allied Health Sciences
Nursing Science, Medical Laboratory Science and Doctor of Physiotherapy require credits in these five subjects:
- English Language
- Mathematics
- Biology
- Chemistry
- Physics
For Public Health, the university lists English Language, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology or Health Science, and Physics or another relevant science subject.
These are O’Level requirements. Your UTME subject combination is a separate part of admission eligibility.
JAMB Subject Combinations and Cut-Off Marks
Use the JAMB Eligibility Checker to check the subject combination for your course and institution before completing a course selection or change of course. It provides a dedicated route for checking admission requirements.
The university’s programme entries require an acceptable JAMB score but do not specify a numerical departmental cut-off for each course.
The 150 UTME score stated in its pioneer scholarship conditions is a scholarship eligibility threshold. It should not be presented as the confirmed departmental cut-off for Nursing, Physiotherapy or every other programme.
Direct Entry Requirements
Direct Entry applicants must meet the relevant O’Level requirements as well as the qualification listed for their course.
Management and Social Sciences
| Course | Direct Entry qualification |
|---|---|
| Accounting | At least two relevant A-Level passes, including one in Accounting, Commerce or Economics |
| Business Administration | At least two relevant A-Level passes, with Mathematics required at A-Level; relevant ND or HND qualifications with at least Upper Credit may also be considered |
| Criminology and Security Studies | At least two relevant A-Level passes; an Upper Credit diploma in Criminology, Criminal Justice, Law Enforcement or Security Studies may also be considered |
| International Relations | At least two relevant A-Level passes |
The Sociology entry lists at least two relevant A-Level passes alongside its O’Level requirements.
Science and Computing
Computer Science, Cyber Security, Information Technology and Software Engineering: A relevant University Diploma, National Diploma or NCE at a minimum of credit level, together with the required science O’Level credits.
Microbiology: At least two relevant A-Level passes through GCE, IJMB or JUPEB. The university lists subjects including Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Geography, Mathematics and Physics.
Physics with Electronics: At least two relevant A-Level passes, including Physics and Mathematics.
Science Laboratory Technology: An ND in Science Laboratory Technology or two A-Level passes in Biology, Chemistry or Physics at one sitting. The university specifies Upper Credit with a CGPA of at least 3.50 for the ND route; applicants should check how that stated threshold applies to their transcript.
Allied Health Sciences
| Course | Direct Entry qualification |
|---|---|
| Doctor of Physiotherapy | A recognised degree in a related health sciences discipline other than Physiotherapy, or recognised A-Level passes in Physics, Chemistry and Biology |
| Medical Laboratory Science | A relevant B.Sc. in Biochemistry, Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology or Zoology; alternatively, recognised A-Level credit passes in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. MLSCN Medical Laboratory Technician certificate holders may also be considered |
| Nursing Science | RN and/or RM qualification, the required O’Level credits and two relevant A-Level subjects, subject to university and professional requirements |
| Public Health | Relevant qualifications such as ND in Science Laboratory Technology, diplomas in Medical Laboratory Science or Dental Technology, CHEW, RN or RM; alternatively, relevant O’Level credits and at least two A-Level subjects |
A qualification accepted for one course does not automatically qualify an applicant for another. For example, the university’s Public Health entry routes are broader than those listed for Nursing Science.
