O’Level Subject Combination
Below is the UTME Requirement for Education and Economics;
- Five (5) ‘O’ level credit passes to include English Language, Economics, and Mathematics.
Only three subjects are named at this stage, so two of your five credits are free choices. Economics and Mathematics both have to be credit passes, which rules out a purely Arts combination.
Jamb Subject Combination
Below is the UTME/JAMB SUBJECT COMBINATION for Education and Economics;
- English Language, Economics, Mathematics, and one (1) another subject from Geography/Physics, History, Government, and Literature in English.
The UTME list fixes three subjects and gives you one choice. That final slot can be Geography or Physics, History, Government or Literature in English, so both Arts and Science candidates can build a valid combination.
Direct Entry Requirements
Below is the DIRECT ENTRY (DE) Requirement for Education and Economics;
- Two (2) ‘A’ level passes in Economics and one (1) another relevant subject.
- NCE merit/credit in Economics and one (1) other subject.
Both Direct Entry options pair Economics with a second subject, so the A level and NCE routes ask for the same shape of qualification.
JAMB Score
For any candidate to be admitted to any Department in the University of Lagos, the Candidate must score 200 and above in JAMB.
