This article is designed for students who wish to study Arts and Design under the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at Osun State Polytechnic (OSPOLY) Higher National Diploma (HND).
Confirm that Art and Design is still listed at OSPOLY before you register for JAMB. Fine Art is the one subject required on both lists, and the supporting options differ sharply between them.
Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, also known as OSPOLY, is a tertiary learning institution in Iree, Osun State, Nigeria. The Polytechnic was formerly a satellite campus of The Polytechnic, Ibadan.

It became autonomous on 12 October 1992 when the Governor of Osun State, Alhaji, Isiaka Adeleke, signed the law establishing the institution alongside The Osun State College of Technology located at Esa-Oke in Osun State.
Osun State Polytechnic Iree also has a Daily Part-Time Program (DPT) at the Koko campus.
To study Arts and Design, candidates must meet the following requirements.

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 Art and Design under the Faculty of Arts & Humanities at OSPOLY include;
- Fine Art and any two of the following:
- History,
- Chemistry,
- Mathematics,
- Biology and
- A Nigeria Language
On the JAMB form Fine Art joins the compulsory English Language, and two papers come from History, Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology and a Nigerian language.
Mathematics therefore drops from a named credit to one option among five, so it can be left off the registration but not off your result.
Direct Entry Requirements
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Art and Design if you don’t intend to use UTME.
No Direct Entry conditions are listed under this heading, so candidates holding a diploma or A Level passes should confirm the requirements with the polytechnic before applying.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted to the Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have scored 120 or above in your JAMB result.
Fine Art on Both Lists at OSPOLY Art and Design
Fine Art and English Language are required at both stages, which makes them the two grades to secure before anything else in this application.
Mathematics is a named credit but only an option in JAMB, so the two lists must be checked separately. The score needed here is 120 or above for the 2026/2027 session.
