Pre-degree Background

With the introduction of the course unit system in Nigerian Universities in the 1977/78 Session the Concessional Entrance Examination was abolished in 1978 and admission to Universities became centralized through the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB). Well over one million applicants seek admission every year into universities which now have a combined capacity of about 250,000. The competition is quite stiff and good preparation will result in better performance by the students. This background establishes the need for a Pre-Degree Programme in the arts and the sciences that would serve as a platform to equip prospective students for university admission, give them a good head-start and promote superior studentship in the university.

Programme Philosophy

In accordance with the vision and objectives of the University, it is believed that the Pre-Degree Programme will promote individual self-development and remedy the deficiencies carried over from the secondary school in the ability to speak, read and write and to receive instruction in order to successfully undertake a university programme.
