The UNIBEN JUPEB application form (also known as FOUNDATION PROGRAMME) is now available. The University of Benin (UNIBEN) is currently accepting applications for admission to its JUPEB program for the academic year 2022/2023. UNIBEN JUPEB enables applicants to earn Direct Entry Admission into 200-level degrees provided by UNIBEN and other JUPEB-affiliated universities in Nigeria and abroad.
Admission to the University of Benin (UNIBEN) Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) Programme for the 2022/2023 Session is open to adequately qualified applicants.
Concerning UNIBEN JUPEB Programme
The Program culminates to the awarding of the Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) Certificate, which allows applicants to acquire Direct Entry Admission into 200 level degrees provided by the University of Benin and other JUPEB-affiliated universities in Nigeria and universities overseas. The JUPEB Certificate is comparable to the Advanced Level GCE, the Old Higher School Certificate (HSC), and the IJMB.
Each candidate enrolled to the program will engage in rigorous academic work in three subject combinations pertinent to their intended field of study. The subjects are divided into four courses labeled 001, 002, 003, and 004, and each candidate must complete six courses per semester for a total of twelve courses at the conclusion of the program. Additionally, candidates must take at least two courses in general studies (one per semester). Each course will be reviewed at the end of each semester, but the results from all courses will be combined at the end of the second semester to determine each subject’s letter grade (i.e. A, B, C, D, E & F). Each candidate’s selection of general studies will be based on general courses pertinent to the topic of study.
In addition to passing the statutory JUPEB examination for the issuance of Direct Entry Certificates, all candidates for admission to the University of Benin and other JUPEB-affiliated institutions must meet all departmental and faculty-specific admission standards.
