This article is designed to help students who wish to study Education, Language, and French under the Faculty of Education at Lagos State University.
Confirm that Education, Language and French is still listed at LASU before you register for JAMB. A waiver adds a Mathematics credit that the general O Level line does not mention.
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, Language, and French; You require;
Five (5) SSC credit passes to include English Language and French.
The general line names only English Language and French, leaving three credits open. The waiver below it changes that.
Special Consideration (Waiver) Remarks
- LASU accepts TC II merit in five (5) subjects.
- LASU requires an ‘O’ level credit pass in Mathematics.
Two things follow from this block. A Teachers Grade II at merit in five subjects is accepted in place of SSCE credits, and Mathematics becomes a compulsory credit.
That leaves two genuinely open places rather than three, and it catches candidates who treat this as a languages only application.
