UNILAG

Biology is the subject that runs through this course. It is the only named JAMB paper beyond compulsory English Language, and it heads the list of acceptable A level subjects.

One point to be aware of before reading on. The same two qualifications are listed under both the UTME heading and the Direct Entry heading on this page.

UTME Requirement for Health Education

Below is the O’level Requirement for Health Education;

  • Two ‘A’ level passes in any of Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics.
  •  NCE (merit) in Physical Education and credit in Arithmetical Process or Mathematics.

Jamb Subject Combination

Below is the JAMB SUBJECT COMBINATION for Health Education;

  • English Language(*), Biology, and any (2) relevant subjects.

Direct Entry Requirement for Health Education

Below is the DIRECT ENTRY (DE) Requirement for Health Education;

  • Two ‘A’ level passes in any of Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics.
  •  NCE (merit) in Physical Education and credit in Arithmetical Process or Mathematics.

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.

Confirming the UNILAG Health Education Entry Route

The qualifications listed are two A level passes in any of Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics, or an NCE at merit in Physical Education together with a credit in Arithmetical Process or Mathematics.

Both of those read as advanced level entry rather than a standard five credit O’Level combination, and they appear twice on the page under different headings.

Because of that, a candidate applying through UTME should confirm the O’Level subject combination directly with the department before registering, rather than assuming the list above covers it.

What is clear is the JAMB combination. English Language is compulsory, Biology is required, and two further relevant subjects complete the four papers.

The JAMB score for any UNILAG department is 200 and above. Secure your Biology credit and plan your two relevant UTME papers around the sciences named in the qualification list.
