Criteria for Selecting Admitted Candidates.
We will be looking at the criteria for selection of
qualified candidates for admission, required JAMB score for admission, valid
grades for admission and mode of admission and so on. Lets take them one after
the other.
CRITERIA FOR SELECTION OF QUALIFIED CANDIDATES
Criterial in this context simply refer to modalities for selction of qualified prospects. After the cancellation of Post-UTME a lot of things change in screening methodology. Some schools conducted entrance examination to test individual performance of applicants before admission while most schools just proceed with the physical screening.

I observe that during the course of this year admission
screening a lot of things did not go well. I observe that most schools were
only admitting students with high grades like As and Bs while those with Cs are
left behind. On that note it simply implies that if schools continue to
administer admission to students in this manner applicants whose grades are
less the As and Bs will not be admitted. The most annoying part of it is that
if for any reason they will be admitted the courses they chose primarily will
not be given. Most of the candidates that fall into this category were offered
another course in another faculty entirely. Some students called me to inform
me that they are science students but were admitted into faculty of arts. Isn’t
that frustrating and annoying?
If you trace this issue to the bottom you will discover that
they were not admitted or given their rightful course because they did not have
As and Bs in their WAEC/NECO which brings us to valid grades for admission
consideration.
GRADE VALIDITY
Grade validity refers to the level of measurement of
student’s performance in each of the subject offered in WAEC, NECO or GCE. We
have A, B, C, D, E and F. I believe you are familiar with what each of these
grades represent. You are required to
have at least 5 credits in each of the subjects related to your course of study
before you can be considered for admission. Anything less than that is not
accepted. This has been the tradition of
all tertiary institutions in Nigeria in the previous years. Since the bridge in
the methodology of admission modalities and screening there was a shift in the
norms and administration of institutions of higher learning. This has become a
huge problem for prospects and parents of many students as most students with
grades lower than A and B are not offered admission this year.
REQUIRED JAMB SCORE FOR ADMISSION
Sometimes I wonder what JAMB stands for and the role JAMB
play in moderating admission into tertiary institutions in Nigeria. JAMB’s
primary objective is to moderate and directs admission of all tertiary institutions
and decide what is acceptable or not. ASUU and ASUP are to respond to JAMB not
the other way round. We have seen instances where JAMB gives rules on what and
how to admit students and some schools go against it and do as they wish. JAMB
cut off mark is supposed to be generally accepted in all schools. Not like we
see every year where some schools will declare their cut off mark to be 190,
200 and even 210 when JAMB has declared cut off mark for all institutions to be
180.
MODES OF ADMISSION
I know many of your are not familiar with these and I see a lot of students asking so many questions on how to go about this. There are two modes of admission namely; 1. Admission by choice of school and (2) admission by supplementary.

(1)
ADMISSION BY CHOICE OF SCHOOL.
Admission by choice of school refers to those offered admission based on their choice of institutions when registering for JAMB. These set of students choose a particular school as their choice of institution, participated in the admission screening of the institution and were offered admission in that same school. In this case there is no need for change of institution after being admitted.

(2)
ADMISSION BY SUPPLEMENTARY.
This mode of admission refers to those set of students who were offered admission in another institution totally different from the institution they chose as their choice of institution when registering for JAMB. This type of admission is associated with supplementary list. Usually schools that practice such mode of admission always come up with supplementary form after they release their merit lists. They invite all Jambites that score up to JAMB cut off mark of the year to fill the spaces remaining in some of the departments that are yet to meet up the number of students to be admitted for the academic session.
All the students that are admitted through mode of supplementary are to apply for change of institution immediately they are admitted for proper JAMB documentation. Reason being that your record on JAMB database is the school you chose while doing your registration, hence there is need for correction of information to correspond with your present school.
