This is one of the most open subject requirements at UNILAG. English Language is the only named subject anywhere on the page.

Everything else is described by stream rather than by subject, which makes Mass Communication accessible to any arts or social science candidate.

Mass Communication Admission Requirement

O’Level Subject Combination

Below is the O’level Requirement for MASS COMMUNICATION in the faculty of Social/Management Sciences

  • Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language and four (4) other subjects in Arts or Social Sciences.

Jamb Subject Combination

Below is the UTME/JAMB SUBJECT COMBINATION for MASS COMMUNICATION in the faculty of Social/Management Sciences

  • English Language(*), and any three (3) Arts and Social Science subjects.

Direct Entry Requirement for Mass Communication

Below is the Direct Entry (DE) Requirement for MASS COMMUNICATION in the Social/Management Sciences faculty.

  • Two (2) ‘A’ level passes in Arts or Social Science subjects.

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.

UNILAG Mass Communication Names Only English Language

The O’Level requirement is five SSC credit passes in English Language and four other subjects in the Arts or Social Sciences.

The JAMB combination asks for English Language and any three Arts and Social Science subjects, with nothing further specified.

Direct Entry takes two A level passes in Arts or Social Science subjects, again without naming any particular one.

The only real constraint is that your subjects must sit within those two streams. A candidate with a purely science profile would not satisfy the rule as written.

The JAMB score for any UNILAG department is 200 and above. Given how competitive Mass Communication is nationally, treat that figure as a floor rather than a target.
