3️⃣ All applicants must have obtained a minimum of five (5) relevant credits at the Ordinary Level (O’Level), including compulsory passes in English Language and Mathematics, in not more than two sittings.
4️⃣ Candidates who do not meet the required cut-off marks for their initially chosen programmes are strongly advised to consider changing to alternative programmes for which they are qualified. This change must be effected on the official JAMB portal before proceeding with the screening application.
5️⃣ Direct Entry (DE) applicants are also eligible provided they possess, in addition to the minimum of five (5) relevant O’Level credits (including English Language and Mathematics), at least a merit in NCE or a minimum of lower credit in ND/HND or a Second Class Lower Division in a relevant degree.
