Archaeology at the University Of Ibadan (UI) publishes a list of subjects it will not accept, which is more useful to candidates than the list of those it will.
Commerce, Business Studies, Book Keeping, Accounting and Civic Education are all ruled out at both the O’Level and JAMB stages. A candidate from a commercial track needs to plan around that.
The departmental screening mark is lower than the university wide JAMB figure, so the sections below set out both numbers alongside the subject conditions.

The JAMB registration repeats the same structure and the same exclusions. Four subjects are written: English Language, two Arts subjects and any other from the Arts or Social Sciences.
