My Younger Brother Was Denied Admission Because He Is Underaged by Bibidear(op): 9:31pm On Mar 09, 2020
so,my mum called tonight that my younger brother was denied admission into a tertiary institution because he is underaged.
He didn't even register for this Jamb and he is depressed because that is two years wasted,how do I counsel him?

Why didn't you counsel him before purchasing jamb form? He should have learnt ICT or it's equivalent before purchasing jamb form. Most teenagers are ignorantly writing SSCE and Jamb thinking they will be admitted forgetting that some universities are strict on their requirements especially as it relates to age. To keep your brother busy, he should take JUPEB or computer programming tutorials.

You guys should have used an Affidavit instead of the original birth certificate.

They're right sha....the required age of admission into any tertiary institution in Nigeria, is above 16years

If you desperately want admission for your brother this year, then the only solution is to seek that from private university.

Even if your bro is 13+ he will be admitted
