List Of Universities In Nigeria Offering Political Science & Their Admission Requirements

What is Political Science? Why do candidates go for Political science? is it the passion for the course or the intentional evasion of Mathematics and other calculation courses? what is the reason for the increase in the search for universities that offer Political Science? The above questions are still lingering in the minds of many till date.

Truth be told, some students choose courses based on the subjects requirements and information gotten from people as regards the schools that offer the course. In the quest to evade any subject that involves calculations, many student look for courses like Political Science, Sociology, Law and some Art related courses that do not require mathematics, Accounting or Economics and they select them as their preferred choice of course during their UTME registration. Would we then say they are passionate about the chosen course? Though this does not apply to all students as some have flare for this course.

Political science is a course offered in most tertiary institutions in Nigeria, It is a course under the faculty of Social Science managed by the Department of Political Science. The importance attached to this post is immeasurable as students during their UTME registration, search for the list of universities offering Political Science so as to make an informed decision on making a sensible choice based on their catchment area.

Aside checking for universities or polytechnics offering Political science as a course, you need to be sure of the correct O’Level and JAMB subject combination for studying Political Science because in the past, candidates who have ignored this move were either forced to change their school or lost out on the admission for that academic session. So we candidly advice you take the following information in this post Seriously.

To study political science in any of the under listed universities, candidates must meet the following basic entry requirements:

a) Must have obtained a minimum of five (5) ‘O’ level credits in the following subjects; English Language, Government or History and three or four other subjects in not more than 2 sittings.

b) Pass the cut off mark for the university or polytechnic of his or her choice. We advice you score a minimum of 230 and above as this gives you a greater chance of gaining admission to study Political Science into your preferred choice of institution.

The above are the basic requirements from the list of Universities Offering Political Science. Though other requirements will be communicated to you by the schools when you register for their post UTME admission forms.
