OSPOLY

Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, also known as OSPOLY, is a tertiary learning institution in Iree, Osun State, Nigeria. The Polytechnic was formerly a satellite campus of The Polytechnic, Ibadan.

It became autonomous on 12 October 1992 when the Governor of Osun State, Alhaji, Isiaka Adeleke, signed the law establishing the institution alongside The Osun State College of Technology located at Esa-Oke in Osun State.

Osun State Polytechnic Iree also has Daily Part-Time Program (DPT) which is located at the Koko campus.

To study Business Administration and Management, candidates must meet the following requirements.

O’Level Subject Combination

The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Business Administration and Management;

You require;

  • English Language (not Literature in English) and Mathematics and
  • any three subjects from the following: Economics/Commerce,
  • Business Methods,
  • Principles of Accounts,
  • Literature in English
  • Geography
  • Office Practice
  • Biology/Agricultural Science,
  • Chemistry,
  • Physics,
  • History/Government
  • Typewriting
  • Shorthand

English Language and Mathematics are the two named credits, with three more drawn from a twelve subject list. The bracketed note confirms that Literature in English cannot stand in for English Language.

That list is deliberately wide, taking in Typewriting, Shorthand and Office Practice alongside Biology, Chemistry and Physics, so candidates from almost any stream can satisfy it.

JAMB Subject Combination

In UTME, please note that the English Language is Compulsory for this course. Therefore, the three (3) other JAMB UTME subject combinations needed to study Business Administration and Management under the Faculty of Administration at OSPOLY include;

  • Mathematics and two of the following:
  • Geography,
  • Commerce,
  • Government,
  • Principles of Accounts and
  • Economics

The JAMB list is strictly commercial and social science. Mathematics is fixed beside the compulsory English Language, and two papers come from Geography, Commerce, Government, Principles of Accounts and Economics.

None of the science or secretarial subjects accepted at O Level appears there, which makes the form the narrower of the two.

Direct Entry Requirements

These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Business Administration and Management if you don’t intend to use UTME.

No Direct Entry conditions are listed under this heading, so candidates holding a diploma or A Level passes should confirm the requirements with the polytechnic before applying.

JAMB Score

All candidates interested in getting admitted to the Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored 120 or above in your JAMB result.

Wide Credits, Commercial JAMB Papers at OSPOLY Business Administration

English Language and Mathematics are compulsory on both lists, which accounts for half the credits and half the JAMB papers before any choice is made.

Beyond those two the pools diverge, with sciences and secretarial subjects counting at O Level but only commercial and social science papers in JAMB. The score needed is 120 or above for the 2026/2027 session.
