Does JUPEB Do Matriculation

What is JUPEB?

JUPEB (Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board) is a direct entry program that allows students to gain admission into the second year of university without writing JAMB UTME.

Do JUPEB Students Participate in Matriculation?

Unlike JAMB candidates, JUPEB students do not always participate in the traditional matriculation ceremony of universities. However, some universities may hold a special orientation or welcome event for JUPEB candidates after admission.

Why Doesn't JUPEB Have Matriculation?

• JUPEB students enter the university at the 200 level, skipping 100-level activities like matriculation.
• Matriculation is primarily for fresh 100-level students.
• Some schools may conduct a brief orientation for JUPEB candidates instead.

Benefits of JUPEB Admission

JUPEB offers several advantages over the traditional JAMB route:

• Direct entry admission into 200 level in top Nigerian universities.
• Eliminates the need to write JAMB UTME.
• Accepted by many federal, state, and private universities.
• More flexible and allows for a personalized study plan.

Universities That Accept JUPEB Admission

Many Nigerian universities accept JUPEB for direct entry admission, including:

• University of Lagos (UNILAG)
• University of Ibadan (UI)
• Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)
• University of Benin (UNIBEN)
• And many more...
