This is to inform the general public that the University Of Ibadan (UI) management has published the admission requirements for her department of Dentistry For her admission aspirants.
The admission requirements consist of O’level Subject combinations, JAMB UTME Subject combinations, and School and Departmental Cut-Off Marks.

Dentistry leaves no room for subject choices. All five Ordinary Level credits are named outright, and the four JAMB papers are named as well, so a candidate either holds the exact combination or does not qualify.
The marks are the highest part of the requirement. The university asks for 200 in JAMB, but the Department of Dentistry sets its screening mark at 250, which is fifty points above the general figure.
