The University of Nigeria (UNN), Nsukka, has published the admission requirements for its Department of Pharmacy, covering the O’Level credits, the JAMB UTME papers and both cut-off marks.

Pharmacy allows one substitution and no more. Agricultural Science is accepted in place of Biology at O’Level, but the JAMB combination names Biology outright.
Both score figures are 200, so the department applies the same standard as the university rather than a higher one.
