No UTME? No Worries!
Gaining admission to higher institutions in Nigeria has long been a challenging process, with students frequently attempting the UTME year after year in hopes of securing a spot. However, national data has shown that the UTME is not the most reliable path to admission, as only about 20% of annual UTME candidates are successful. Furthermore, the Post UTME has been identified as another obstacle for students seeking admission to universities. Because out of the 1.7 million UTME candidates each year, only about 320,000 are successful in securing admission. In contrast, the IJMB program has been proven to be a more effective alternative.
Gain Admission Without Stress
The IJMB program is a nine-month A-level program that has been approved by the Federal Government as a pathway to university admission in Nigeria and abroad. It is moderated by Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) in Zaria and is a viable pathway to university admission, as it does not require the JAMB or Post UTME. Candidates with pending results can also apply to the IJMB program. All that is required is a satisfactory O-level result, such as a WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB certificate with a minimum of five credits in one sitting or six credits in two sittings.

If you are interested in participating, you will need to select three A-level subjects related to your desired course of study at the university, with English Language being mandatory.
