ith the new guidelines introduced by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), the admission process for entry into tertiary institutions in Nigeria has changed.
The implication of the point-based system means:
Candidates can no longer go directly to the institutions they applied to
seeking admission; they have to get a provisional admission letter
from JAMB first.
Admission letter would be issued by JAMB based on points assigned to
the O Level and UTME results
For O Level, one sitting attracts 10 points, while two sittings, is assigned two points
The better the O Level results, the more the points (e.g. ; A=6 marks,
B=4 marks, C=3 marks)
For UTME scores, candidates can get between 20 and 60 points
(180-200=20-23 points; 200-250=24-33 points, 251-300=34-43
points, 300-400=44-60 points)
Pont-based system for Direct Entry candidates still being developed
