- NCE in any two Arts subjects with an overall Merit level pass.
Keep Direct Entry Separate From UTME
These qualifications are the Direct Entry routes stated for the course. They should not be confused with the UTME subject structure of two relevant Arts subjects and any other subject or with the separate O'Level requirements.
An Important BENIN Consideration
The brochure also provides an O'Level special consideration for BENIN: candidates with an O'Level distinction pass in Literature in English may be accepted with an O'Level pass in English Language. This is an institution-specific condition and remains relevant when considering the complete admission requirements.
Checking Your Eligibility
Direct Entry candidates should make sure that their qualification matches one of the routes specifically listed for Linguistics/Edo. A qualification accepted for another Linguistics-related programme should not automatically be assumed to qualify a candidate for this course.
