Lead City University, Ibadan Admission Guide

1. JAMB UTME Requirements

To apply to Lead City University, Ibadan, you must sit the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination and meet these minimums:

• Minimum JAMB score: 180 for most courses. Competitive courses (Medicine, Law, Pharmacy, Engineering) require 230–290.
• Choose Lead City University, Ibadan as your first or second choice institution on the JAMB CAPS portal.
• Correct subject combination — your JAMB subjects must match the course you're applying for. Use our Subject Checker to verify.

2. O'Level Requirements

You must have at least five (5) credit passes in your O'Level (WAEC, NECO, NABTEB) at not more than two sittings. These must include:

• English Language (compulsory for all courses)
• Mathematics (compulsory for most courses)
• Three (3) other relevant subjects depending on your course of study

See the specific course pages for the exact O'Level subjects required.

3. Post-UTME Screening

Lead City University, Ibadan runs a Post-UTME (post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination) screening for candidates who select it as a first or second choice. The Post-UTME usually includes:

• Computer-Based Test (CBT) covering English, current affairs and course-related questions.
• Document verification — present original O'Level results, JAMB result slip and birth certificate.
• Registration fee paid via the official portal.

4. Aggregate Score Formula

Lead City University, Ibadan ranks candidates by an aggregate score — not by JAMB alone. The standard formula is:

Aggregate = (JAMB Score ÷ 8) + (Post-UTME Score ÷ 2)
Maximum aggregate: 100. Most courses require 50+; competitive courses require 70+.

Some courses use O'Level grading instead of (or alongside) Post-UTME. Check the course-specific cutoff page or our aggregate calculator.
