A Craft Friendly O Level List for UNILAG Architecture
The O’Level requirement is five SSC credit passes drawn from a list that begins with English Language, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry and then extends across Fine Art, Technical Drawing, Further Mathematics and a long run of building trades.
Introduction to Building Construction, Concreting, Decorative Painting, Ceramics, Graphics Design and Basic Electricity all appear there. A candidate who followed a technical rather than an academic track is not shut out.
The UTME combination is far shorter, naming English Language, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Geography, Art, Biology and Economics. None of the trade subjects carry across to that stage.
Direct Entry accepts two advanced level passes chosen from Mathematics or Physics and Chemistry, Geography or Fine Arts. An ND or HND at upper credit in a relevant field is also recognised.
The JAMB score condition is 200 and above for admission to any department at the University of Lagos.
