This article is designed to help students who wish to study Education and Yoruba under the Faculty of Education at Lagos State University.
Confirm that Education and Yoruba is still listed at LASU before you register for JAMB. Two waivers sit in this post and both change what the general lines allow.
Lagos State University, also known as LASU, was established in 1983 by the enabling Law of Lagos State of Nigeria for the advancement of learning and establishment of academic excellence.
The university caters to a population of over 35,000 students enrolled full-time. The university also offers courses at Diploma, Undergraduate, and Postgraduate levels. Lagos State University is located in Ojo, a town in Lagos State, Nigeria.
LASU is the only state university in the former British colony. Lagos State University offers diploma, degree, and postgraduate programs, including an MBA program.
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Education and Yoruba;
You require; Five (5) SSC credit passes, including English Language and Yoruba.
The general line names English Language and Yoruba and leaves three credits open.
Special Consideration (Waiver) Remarks
- LASU requires an ‘O’ Level credit pass in Mathematics.
The first waiver adds Mathematics as a compulsory credit, which reduces the open places to two and surprises candidates applying for a language programme.
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 Yoruba under the Faculty of Education at LASU include;
Yoruba and any two (2) subjects chosen from History, Literature in English, French, Christian Religious Studies, Islamic Studies, Arabic, Geography, and Physics.
The general JAMB line keeps Yoruba beside the compulsory English Language and offers eight options for the other two papers, including Physics.

Special Consideration (Waiver) Remarks
- LASU accepts Government but does not accept Physics.
The second waiver edits that list directly. Government is added and Physics is removed, so a candidate planning to register Physics would have an invalid combination.
Direct Entry Requirement
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Education and Yoruba if you don’t intend to use UTME. You require;
Two (2) NCE/’A’ Level passes in Yoruba and any Literature in English, Christian Religious Studies, Islamic Studies, Igbo, and French.
Direct Entry keeps Yoruba compulsory and pairs it with Literature in English, a religious studies paper, Igbo or French. An NCE is accepted alongside A Level passes.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into LASU for the 2026/2027 session, should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored 160 or above in your JAMB result.
The Waiver That Removes Physics From LASU Education and Yoruba
Yoruba and English Language are required at the first two stages, and Yoruba carries through to Direct Entry as well. Those two are the foundation.
The waivers then do the real work, adding Mathematics as a compulsory credit and striking Physics from the JAMB options while adding Government. Register on that basis and clear 160 for the 2026/2027 session.
