An History and International Studies Student

If you're considering choosing History and International Relations/Studies while registering for the JAMB UTME, it's important to know the list of universities offering that, what SSCE subjects are required, and the right subjects to choose and sit for during the UTME.

Candidates with BSc, HND, ND, NCE, and other A'level programs who are picking up direct entry forms will want to know what JAMB and individual universities will be accepting for DE admissions.

Having this prior knowledge will help you decide correctly from the start. And if need be, you will understand what is required of you if you're considering changing institutions and courses.

In this post, I will be covering the list of universities (federal, state, and private) that offer History and International Relations/Studies.
