International Studies and Diplomacy Direct Entry Requirements for Art/Humanities Candidates
Contents
Direct Entry applicants for International Studies and Diplomacy should rely on the requirements attached to the exact course entry rather than borrowing qualifications from a related programme. The course is listed under Art/Humanities in the JAMB brochure.
Direct Entry Information in the Brochure
For International Studies and Diplomacy, the displayed course entry on page 198 lists University of Benin (UNIBEN) and Benson Idahosa University (BIU), but the Direct Entry column does not state a specific qualification for either institution in the displayed row.
Consequently, qualifications such as A' Level, NCE, ND, HND or IJMB have not been added as general requirements for this course because the exact course entry does not provide them.
Do Not Transfer Requirements from Another Course
The same page contains detailed Direct Entry and special consideration information for the preceding course. For instance, the surrounding text mentions qualifications involving GCE A' Level, NCE, National Diploma and other credentials. Those conditions appear before the International Studies and Diplomacy heading and should not be attributed to this course.
What Direct Entry Candidates Should Do
A candidate interested in Direct Entry should confirm the current requirements specifically applicable to International Studies and Diplomacy at the chosen institution. The supplied brochure does not provide a standalone Direct Entry qualification in the exact displayed row.
This is preferable to presenting a qualification from International Relations and Diplomacy, History and Diplomatic Studies or another related programme as though it applies to International Studies and Diplomacy.
Before You Apply
- Confirm the exact programme title: International Studies and Diplomacy.
- Confirm the institution offering the course.
- Verify the current Direct Entry conditions applicable to that institution.
- Do not assume that a qualification listed for a related course automatically applies.
