Political Science at Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) has its entry rules below, covering the O’Level subject combination, the JAMB papers, the university JAMB score and the departmental cut-off mark.
Mathematics is required only at pass level here, and the O’Level rule accepts Social Studies alongside Government and History, which widens the entry considerably.
Against that, the departmental mark of 240 is forty points above the university cut-off and is where most applications are decided.
