The entrance examination is Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) organized by the Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB) , where candidates are required to sit for three arts or social science subjects, in addition to English Language which is compulsory for all candidates.
For admission through the direct entry, candidates must possess two âAâ level passes in Arts or Social Science subjects. Those with National Certificate in Education/ Ordinary National Diploma (NCE/OND)/First Degree (Second Class Lower) in relevant areas, stand to be considered for direct entry admission as well.
Qualification awarded in the universities is L.L.B and this takes a minimum of five years for UTME entrants and four years for direct entry students.
