Theatre Arts at the University Of Ibadan (UI) is built around Literature in English rather than around any performance subject. The paper is required at O’Level and again in the JAMB combination.
The departmental cut-off is set forty marks above the university figure, so the screening examination carries more weight here than the subject list does. Both numbers are set out below.
Candidates who assume an Arts background alone is enough often miss the Literature condition. It is the one named subject beyond English Language anywhere in these requirements.
