Direct Entry Requirement
You need the following to gain Direct Entry admission to study Music at UNN if you don’t intend to use UTME: two (2) ‘A’ level passes to include Music.
JAMB Score
All candidates interested in getting admitted into UNN for the 2026/2027 session should know that to be eligible for the screening, you must have a minimum score of 200 or above in your JAMB result.
Keeping Music as Your Constant Subject at UNN
Music itself is the one fixed requirement across every route into this course, whether O’Level, JAMB, or Direct Entry route, so your other chosen subjects have more flexibility to build around it.
Confirm these requirements against UNN’s current admission brochure before registering, since the 200 JAMB benchmark can shift between academic admission sessions.
Candidates applying through Direct Entry should keep their ‘A’ level Music result and one other relevant subject documented, since UNN checks these documents carefully alongside the standard SSCE requirements listed above for this programme.
