Admission Requirements
Candidates seeking admission into a Nigerian University should ensure that his/her JAMB result (score), Post UTME score, and WAEC grade is good, especially in the computer science subjects combinations.
Nigerian tertiary institutions now calculate your O’level results (either Waec, NECO, GCE), your JAMB score and Post UTME score, to determine whether you’re qualified or not. When all these are calculated, the aggregate score is what determines whether you are eligible for admission to study Computer Science.
Better still, candidates who got their O’level result (Waec, Neco, GCE) in one sitting have a better chance of getting admitted into their chosen institution to study Computer Science than those who are using two sittings (Combination of Waec, Neco, or GCE result).
