History and International Studies Admission Requirements: What Candidates Should Check Before Applying
Contents
History and International Studies is listed under Arts/Humanities in the JAMB brochure. The course entry covers a large number of institutions, but the general requirements are accompanied by institution-specific conditions that candidates should not overlook.
General O'Level Requirement
The course entry provides five SSCE credit passes including English Language, Geography and Government/History.
UTME Subjects
The stated UTME combination is History/Government and any other two subjects from the Arts and Social Sciences.
Direct Entry
The general Direct Entry provision is two A' Level passes or NCE at Upper Credit in History/Government and any other related subject.
Institution-Specific Conditions
The special consideration section contains additional conditions for particular institutions. For example, AAUA, AJAYI, CALABAR, LASU, PLASU, UNIOSUN, UYO and EUI have specific Direct Entry provisions that differ in detail from the general course entry.
Do Not Mix Related Courses
History/International Studies is separately listed from History and Diplomacy, History and Diplomatic Studies, History and Strategic Studies and other related programmes. Candidates should therefore check the exact course title before applying.
Your Admission Checklist
- Confirm that your chosen course is History/International Studies.
- Check the institution's exact entry in the brochure.
