Another means to gain ND admission is through school-administered programs known as a one-year pre-National Diploma in our polytechnic. This course is usually run as full-time. To gain admission into this one year program, candidates must have:

Four SSCE/GCE/NABTEB passes in four subjects relevant to the program at not more than two sittings. The subjects must include English language, Mathematics and any other two subjects related to your course of study.

With the completion of a one-year pre-National diploma in an NBTE accredited university, one can use his/her certificate to gain admission into a polytechnic for an ND program provided he/she has four credit passes in relevant subjects obtained at the Pre-ND examination.

It is important to note that after completion of a 2-year ND course at any polytechnic, you’re awarded ND. With an ND certificate, one can further his/her education to the university through JAMB direct entry admission.

HND ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

You are only granted HND admission into The polytechnic only on the successful completion of your ND program in an NBTE accredited Polytechnic.

You can decide to further with HND at The polytechnic or any other polytechnic. HND is also a two-year program.

HND is the award given to a polytechnic graduate after completing a 2-year ND, 1 or 2 years Industrial Training (IT), and a 2-year HND course.

It is important to note that the HND course doesn’t require writing UTME again or obtaining the JAMB direct entry form. Applicants are only to take part in the entrance examination, interview or screening organized by the school.
