Difference Between Pre-degree (Remedial) and IJMB (Interim joint matriculation board)

If you’re wondering, pre-degree and remedial are the same program at the University of Ibadan; it all depends on which of the two names the school chooses to associate or identify the program with.

PRE-DEGREE (REMEDIAL)

1. Program lasting between eight to twelve months
2. it provides admission to 100L (year one)
3. JAMB score is required prior to admission.
4. Before applying for the program, your O’level results must be complete.
5. Only one institution (the one running the program) has to offer you admission.
6. Not all courses are accepted for Pre-degree (e.g Medicine)
7. The Pre-degree result is valid for ONLY one year.
8. Most Nigerian universities charge around N150,000 to run.
9. Because lectures are primarily a review of O’level topics, they contribute little to students’ readiness for university education.

IJMB (interim joint matriculation board)

1. It offers a nine-month program.
2. Provides admission to 200L (year 2)
3. There is no need for a UTME before final admission because admission is by direct entry (DE)
4. Accepts an incomplete O’level and awaiting result.
5. Recognized by 75% of Nigerian universities
6. Accepted into all courses, including medicine, law, and engineering
7. The result is valid for fifteen (15) years.
8. Programme cost about N110,000 to run
9. Because the lectures are A level, it prepares students for university education.

Please keep in mind that the purpose of this review is to help you make a decision.

Is the UI pre-degree form still available?
The University of Ibadan does not sell pre-degree programs through any website, admission officer, or agent.

Can I gain admission from pre-degree to 200 level?
Pre-degree courses will not result in an admission offer to 200. You’re only prepared for the 100 level at this point. If you must avoid 100 entirely, A’level and diploma programmes at various universities are your best bet.

How long does the pre-degree program last?
A predegree programme is a one-year course offered by a university to prepare students for entry into the 100 level of any of her courses. The course is divided into two semesters and typically lasts 6 to 9 months of academic work.

Is JAMB required for a pre-degree program?
Do You Have to Write the JAMB UTME With Your Predegree? Yes, the answer is YES. You have to. Several universities offering pre-degree programs will continue to require candidates to take JAMB because it is the custom and the national requirement for full-time admission.

What is the differentiates between a remedial and a pre-degree program?
If you’re wondering, pre-degree and remedial are the same program at the University of Ibadan; it all depends on which of the two names the school chooses to associate or identify the program with.

How much are the pre-degree school fees at UNILAG?
