One Arts Subject Is All UNILAG Philosophy Insists On
This department names fewer subjects than almost any other. At O’level it asks for English Language, Mathematics, one Arts subject and two more from Arts, Social Sciences or Science, with Civic Education also accepted.
At UTME the pattern repeats without Mathematics, requiring English Language, one Arts subject and any two from the same three groups.
Science candidates are therefore welcome, provided one Arts subject appears in the combination. That single condition is the one to plan around.
Direct Entry has three branches. The first accepts three JUPEB or A’level subjects from a list that spans Literature in English, Igbo or Yoruba, religious studies, French, History, Economics, Government, Chemistry, Physics and Biology, again with at least one Arts subject.
The second accepts a related field with a minimum 55 per cent average score, and the third an NCE credit in two teaching subjects, one of which must be an Arts subject.
