Government or History Runs Through UNICAL Education and Political Science
The O’Level requirement is five credit passes or equivalent, including English Language, Government or History, and three other subjects that are not specified.
The JAMB combination keeps the same core. English Language, Government or History, and two other Arts or Social Sciences subjects.
Direct Entry offers two routes. Two A level passes in relevant subjects drawn from Government or History, Economics, and Geography or Physics, or an NCE merit in the same group.
Physics appearing beside Geography in that list is unexpected for a social science teaching degree, and it gives science candidates a way in that the UTME route does not.
The UNICAL JAMB threshold is 150 and above for any department. Secure your Government or History credit first, since every route on this page depends on it.
