Islamic Studies at the University Of Ibadan (UI) names two subjects and leaves everything else open. English Language and Islamic Studies are required at O’Level and again in the JAMB combination.
Beyond those two papers the requirements accept subjects from the Arts, Sciences or Social Sciences without restriction. A candidate from a science background is as eligible as one from an arts background.
The two cut-off marks published here do not match. The departmental figure sits below the university wide one, which is unusual and is set out in full below.
