Although there are many courses of National University of Science and Technology, one must know and understand which kind, of course, he/she can choose (that will suit his/her SSCE grades result and even Jamb Result).
Some courses at NAUST are highly competitive, which requires more marks for one to be able to gain admission into the University.
Nevertheless, InfoSchool would list some criteria for one to look into before choosing any type of program or course offered at National University of Science and Technology.
They are listed below;
1. Combination of the Subjects of your SSCE (WAEC, NECO, or other)
2. Potential cut-off mark of the course. What this simply means here is the special cut-off mark that your particular course needs before one can gains admission into its institution.
There is a difference between the cut-off mark and the potential cut-off mark. And what is the difference?
The difference is that the cut-off mark means the general approved required marks of National University of Science and Technology, while the potential one is the cut-off mark that is above the first one which will give chances of being admitted even if there are too many applicants that applied for the course. i.e cut-off mark = 120 (which is the general) potential cut-off mark= 150
Meanwhile, the potential one gives one more assurance of getting admission.
Without much wasting of time, we need to discuss the Subject Combination too.
Subject Combination
The subject combination of the National University of Science and Technology courses is almost the same as others, but with little difference.
The subject combinations are basic subjects which one studies in his secondary school. They are mostly categorized as 5-6.
The subject combination can fall either into Science, Art, or Commercial. Below is a breakdown list of all the categories.
Science;
Mathematics, English, Physic, Chemistry, Biology
Art;
Mathematics, English, Literature, Government, Economics,
Commercial;
Mathematics, English, Marketing, Agriculture,
The above is much important for someone to know when choosing any National University of Science and Technology Course to avoid a misleading error. If you are a science student, chose a science course and vice-versa.
While there are some general courses of National University of Science and Technology which all category students can afford to study.
Now let’s go into the main point, which is NAUST Courses.
