Complete Admission guide for School of Nursing 2019/2020

If you want to become a nurse, there are two options available for you to choose from in Nigeria.

The first option available to you is to undertake a five year course in Nursing in any of the Nigerian University offering the course. This method is a bit rigorous as it involves you writing JAMB UTME examination and also undergoing the POST-UTME of the school of our choice. In case you are interested in knowing how to score above 250 in your JAMB UTME- Click Here

The second option is a bit easier to do, apply for admission into School of Nursing. To gain admission into a nursing school, you must have successfully completed your secondary school and also passed your WAEC/NECO in not more than 2 sittings. The required subjects are Mathematics, English Language, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and other health related subjects.

The school of nursing is usually for duration of 3 years, after graduating, you will be able to work as a qualified nurse in any place you desire.
