JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into UNIJOS for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have a score of a minimum of 180 or above in your JAMB result.
Making the Most of UNIJOS’s Open Subject Policy for Early Childhood Education
This programme has one of the most flexible JAMB combinations at UNIJOS, since any three subjects satisfy the requirement alongside the compulsory English Language, giving you real freedom in your own subject choices here.
Still make sure your five ‘O’ Level credits are in place and your Direct Entry subjects are genuinely relevant to Early Childhood Education before applying, since UNIJOS reviews these individually.
Confirm all these requirements against UNIJOS’s current admission brochure before registering, since the 180 JAMB benchmark and standard subject rules can shift between sessions.
