Education and Mathematics is taught under the Faculty of Education at Adamawa State University. Mathematics is required on all three routes, and the subjects around it stay within the sciences.
The three stages describe those supporting sciences differently. One leaves them unspecified, one names three, and the third asks for a single science subject of the candidate’s choice.
Confirm that Education and Mathematics appears on the current ADSU course list and that your JAMB registration records it correctly before you sit the examination.

Admission Requirements for Education and Mathematics
WAEC/NECO Subject Combination
The WAEC/NECO subject combination and requirements needed to study Education and Mathematics is Five (5) SSCE credits in Mathematics, English Language, and other science subjects.
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 Education and Mathematics under the Faculty of Education at ADSU include;
Mathematics and two (2) other subjects from Chemistry, Biology, and Physics.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Education and Mathematics if you don’t intend to use UTME.
You require;
Two (2) ‘A’ Level/NCE passes, including Mathematics and one (1) another Science subject.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into ADSU for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored a minimum of 180 and above in your JAMB result.
The Science Partner Changes at Each ADSU Education and Mathematics Stage
The O’Level requirement is five SSCE credits in Mathematics, English Language and other science subjects. The remaining three credits are open, provided they come from the sciences.
The UTME combination is the most specific. English Language is compulsory, Mathematics is fixed, and the two remaining papers must be drawn from Chemistry, Biology and Physics.
Direct Entry is the shortest, asking for two ‘A’ Level or NCE passes including Mathematics and one other science subject.
A candidate who satisfies the UTME combination will automatically meet the other two conditions, which makes it the sensible standard to prepare towards.
A JAMB score of 180 and above is the screening threshold for the 2026/2027 session at ADSU and applies before any subject condition is assessed.
