Sociology is offered at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) in the Faculty of Social and Management Sciences. This page covers the O’Level credits, the JAMB combination, the Direct Entry section and the JAMB score.
UNILAG is a federal government research university in Lagos State, in south western Nigeria. It remains among the most competitive institutions in the country for admissions, and holds one of the largest student populations of any Nigerian university.
One warning before the detail. The Direct Entry clause on this page lists Chemistry, Mathematics and an ND in Science Technology, which does not match a Sociology degree.
Treat that section as unreliable and confirm the Direct Entry requirement with the department. The O’Level and UTME sections below are consistent with each other.

What Is Dependable in the UNILAG Sociology Requirements
The O’Level requirement is five SSC credit passes in Government or History, English Language and three other subjects, with a pass in Mathematics required separately.
The JAMB combination asks for English Language and any three Social Science or Arts subjects, which fits a Sociology degree squarely.
Those two sections agree, and together they describe a conventional social science entry route.
The Direct Entry list does not. It names Chemistry and Mathematics A levels and a Science Technology diploma, which belong to a laboratory science course rather than this one.
The JAMB score for any UNILAG department is 200 and above. Plan around the O’Level and UTME rules, and ask the faculty directly about Direct Entry before relying on what is printed here.
