JAMB 2024 – Reasons Why You Might be Denied Admission

Table of Interests

If you are searching for JAMB 2024 – Reasons Why You Might be Denied Admission, then you are in the right place.

Being offered admission into a university is the prayer of every Nigerian student. This is because the number of students far outweighs the number of universities we have in Nigeria. Universities are not even helping the matter at all because most of them admit students based on “long-leg” which I know you understand what I mean.

This post is focusing on reasons you might not be offered admission by the school you choose. These reasons are based on my research, so I hope you trust them.

1. UNABLE TO MEET CUT-OFF MARK FOR YOUR COURSE

This is the most common reason why most of the students are being rejected yearly. For the newbie, let me explain what i mean by cut-off mark.
Cut-off mark is the benchmark or lets me say boundary at which you as a student must reach before been offered admission into a certain university.

There are factors that determine the cut-off mark and example of those are; the number of candidates that choose the course, the high or low pass rate of JAMB/screening examination and so on. Cut-off marks are prone to increase or decrease by those factor i gave. I will explain more on the factors i gave and how the cut-off mark is being derived my next post.

2. WRONG SUBJECT COMBINATION IN JAMB EXAM

This is one avoidable mistake students commit every year. I will always advise a student to make some little research about the course they want to apply for in JAMB exam, and one of those research is finding out about the subject combination for the course. You can simply do this by checking the brochure provided by JAMB. It won’t cost you anything to do this little research because it is capable of destroying your admission this year. Take note!!!!

3. AGE REQUIREMENT

Though some students below the age requirement of a particular school devise ways to get admitted but i won’t advise any student to take the risk of passing JAMB exam and being denied admission simply because of your age (you know how painful it can be). Most schools requires the student to be 16 years old on or before October 1st. I have seen a student that was denied admission because of he was below the age requirement despite meeting other requirements that would have qualified him for the admission slot. So i will advise any student that he or she should make sure that he/she will be 16 years old on or before October 1st.

4. FAILED A CORE SUBJECT IN WAEC/NECO/GCE EXAM

I find it hard to believe that some students apply for admission despite failing a core subject in WAEC/NECO/GCE exam. Maybe they want to try their luck but to be sincere with you, no university will offer such student an admission slot except the student uses “long-leg” which i know you understand what I am saying.

5. USING TWO SITTING RESULT

This is also a criterion that can disqualifies a student during the admission process. A lot of candidates you are competing with uses one sitting result and you know the federal universities favor one sitting result more. Why? The answer is simple; simply because they believe candidates with one sitting result are more educationally sound. Did you get my point? Yeah!!! I will explain more about the disadvantages of using two sitting results in my next post.

The main reason I posted this is to make students aware of possible reasons that may lead to them being denied admission. So I will advise students to make sure they work on my point listed above and get ready to be admitted.
