IBADANPOLY Department of Statistics Admission Requirement 2026/2027


The Polytechnic Ibadan has published the admission requirements for its Statistics department. As with every course at the institution, three elements decide the outcome, namely the O’level subject combination, the four JAMB UTME papers, and the cut-off marks applied at school and departmental level.

Mathematics anchors the O’level side, joined by a basic science and three subjects chosen from a published list. Credit passes in English Language and Physics are compulsory, which is worth noting because Physics also appears inside that optional list.

The UTME combination takes a different shape. English Language is fixed and the other three papers come from a short list that includes Economics or Commerce, History or Government, CRK or IRK, and Mathematics.

This is to inform the general public that the admission requirements for the Statistics department at the Ibadan Polytechnic (IBADAN POLY) have been published.

About The Polytechnic Ibadan

The Polytechnic, Ibadan, is an institution of higher learning in Ibadan in Oyo State, Nigeria.

The Polytechnic was established in 1970 as an institution dedicated to quality academics/education and research to create new approaches that could be applied in Science and Business.

What the IBADANPOLY Statistics UTME List Allows

Candidates often assume a Statistics programme will demand four science papers at UTME. The list published here does not. Religious studies, History or Government, and Economics or Commerce all count, which leaves room for commercial and arts candidates to apply.

The strictness sits at O’level instead. Mathematics is required outright, a basic science is required, and the compulsory credit passes in English Language and Physics apply regardless of which three optional subjects you present.

On marks there is nothing extra to clear. The institution asks for 150 and above in JAMB, and the departmental cut-off mark for Statistics is also 150, so your subject combination is the part worth checking line by line before registration.
