A Flexible Entry Point: UNIJOS Guidance and Counselling
This programme has one of the more open JAMB combinations at UNIJOS, since any three subjects satisfy the UTME requirement alongside English Language.
Still confirm your O’Level Mathematics pass, and check the 180 JAMB benchmark and NTC/NBC or TC II credit requirements against UNIJOS’s current admission brochure, since these details can shift between sessions.
Candidates coming through Direct Entry should also have their NCE or ‘A’ Level certificates ready alongside proof they meet the standard UTME subject requirements listed above for this specific programme.
