Biology Is the Only Named Subject at ADSU Education and Biology
The teaching subject drives everything here. Biology is fixed at UTME and again at Direct Entry, while the remaining papers are drawn from Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics or, at Direct Entry, any other science subject.
Agricultural Science appears only in the O’level line, where it sits alongside Biology among the five credits that also include Mathematics, Chemistry, English Language and Physics.
Nothing on this page asks for an education subject, so candidates are judged purely on their science background at entry.
Two A’level or NCE passes are enough for Direct Entry, one of them Biology. UTME candidates need a minimum of 180 and above in their JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
