The Ordinary Pass That Opens OAU Guidance and Counselling
The O’level line is the most specific part of this page, and it is unusually accommodating. Five credit passes are required including English Language, while Mathematics is accepted at ordinary pass level rather than credit.
Technical and business college candidates are covered as well, since NTC and NBC credit passes count and a TC II merit is accepted in their place.
At UTME the page says only that English Language is required and that three further subjects are needed, without naming them. The Direct Entry section likewise carries no stated conditions.
Treat those two gaps as reasons to confirm the current combination with the department before registering. The score requirement is clear enough, namely 180 or above in your JAMB result for the 2026/2027 session.
