Classical Studies at the University of Ibadan (IBADAN): Admission Requirements and Important Information
Contents
Classical Studies at the University of Ibadan
The University of Ibadan (IBADAN) is the institution listed for Classical Studies in the supplied JAMB brochure. Candidates interested in the programme should pay attention to the exact requirements stated under the Classical Studies entry.
UTME Subject Combination
UTME candidates are required to take Literature in English or History, together with any other two subjects.
This gives candidates some flexibility in selecting the remaining two subjects, but Literature in English or History must be included.
O'Level Requirements at IBADAN
Candidates need five SSC credit passes at one sitting or six SSC credit passes at two sittings.
The required credits must include English Language, Literature in English or History, one Arts or Social Science subject and any other subject.
Candidates should therefore examine their O'Level result carefully instead of looking only at the total number of credits.
Direct Entry Candidates
The Direct Entry requirement provides two routes. Candidates may present two A' Level passes including Literature in English or History. Alternatively, NCE in relevant subjects is accepted.
Anyone applying through DE should ensure that the qualification and subjects presented satisfy the stated condition.
Understanding the Requirement as a Whole
The admission structure reflects the academic nature of the programme. Literature in English or History appears as an important subject across the admission requirements, while the O'Level condition also requires an Arts or Social Science subject.
Special Consideration
No additional institution-specific special consideration or waiver is stated for Classical Studies in the supplied brochure entry. Candidates should therefore use the requirements expressly listed for the programme.
