Joint Admission and Matriculation Board(JAMB) met representatives of Universities, Polythecnics and Colleges of Education, to reveal the new criteria for admission into tertiary institutions in Nigeria. In essence, creating a more national screening models for all schools. Guideline 1(A): Public Schools Admission Course Ratio Federal Universities Ratio: 60/ 40 (SCIENCES Courses / ARTS Courses) A. CONVENTIONAL INSTITUTIONS (Universities and Colleges of Education) Sciences (60) : Arts/Social Sciences (40) B. SPECIALIZED UNIVERSITIES(Technology, Agriculture, etc) Sciences (100%) C. POLYTECHNICS/COLLEGES OF TECHNOLOGY Science Related Courses(70) : Arts Related Courses(30) Guideline 1(B): Admission Entry-Mode Quota UTME/DIRECT ENTRY: 9 : 1 That is: – 90% for UTME – 10% for DE However, if the 10% for DE is not utilized, it may be added to the UTME quota. Guideline 2(A): Private Schools Admission Course Ratio Private Universities: Ratio: 60 / 40 (SCIENCES Courses/ ARTS Courses) A. CONVENTIONAL INSTITUTIONS(Universities and Colleges of Education) Sciences (60) : Arts/Social Sciences (40) B. SPECIALIZED UNIVERSITIES – Sciences, Technology, Agriculture, etc (Not less than 80%) – Others (Not more than 20%) C. POLYTECHNICS, COLLEGES OF TECHNOLOGY, etc – Science/Technology Related (70) : Arts Related (30) Guideline 2(B): Admission Entry-Mode Quota UTME/DIRECT ENTRY RATIO: 9 : 1 That is: – 90% for UTME – 10% for DE ISSUES TO NOTE – The list of candidates that have scored above the minimum cut-off mark, and are NOT admitted may be forwarded to other institutions that need them for consideration. Especially their Second (2nd) Choice institutions of preferences. The rules: 1. Screening of candidates shall be for those offered Provisional Admissions only. 2. No written examination to be conducted. 3. Verification of Course Requirements (O levels or A levels). 4. Verification of valid JAMB results by checking i.Online Result Slip ii.Printout iii.Provisional Admission Letter iv.Photo Album v.Check list vi.Biometrics vii. Before a candidate can seat be considered for screening, he/she must have been given provisional admission by Jamb. viii. Institutions are free to source from other Course(s) to compensate for SHORTFALL in any of the criteria. Guideline 3: The Point System This is the most important part of the new process. The points are evenly spread out between your O’level and Jamb results to provide a level playing field for all. In the first case, any candidate who submits only one result which contains his/her relevant subjects already has 10 Points, the exam could be NECO, WAEC, GCE etc, but any candidate who has 2 sittings only gets 3 Points. So this means that aspirants with only one result are at an advantage but only just. The next point grades fall into the O’level grades. Each grades has it’s equivalent point, A=6 marks, B=4 marks, C=3 marks, so the better your grades the better your chances. The next point is the UTME scores. Each score range has its equivalent point which can be summarized thus, 180-200=20-23 marks, 200-250=24-33 points, 251-300=34-43, 300-400=44-60 points. Each categories contains 5 Jamb results per point added, for example a candidate with 180-185 gets 20points, a candidate with 186-190 gets 21 points etc. Points system for Direct Entry is yet to be released. – Schools might still charge screening fees, this depends on the school. – Catchment and ELDS will still be used!
