Arabic Education at LASU

Education programmes combine the teaching discipline with university entry rules. For Arabic Education, you should check both the subject you intend to teach or specialise in and the general English/Mathematics requirements published by LASU.

What you need before you apply

This page is a course-specific requirement guide, not an admission guarantee. It separates the stable academic requirement from changing items such as screening dates, current cut-off scores and whether an application portal is open.

O’Level requirement

English Language, Arabic, and any subject from Arts or Social Science

Read that requirement literally. A candidate can have five or more credits and still be ineligible if one compulsory subject is missing or if the result combination falls outside the subjects accepted for this course.

UTME subject combination

as listed in the JAMB Brochure Select a programme of study to view the required

The UTME combination and the O’Level credits solve different parts of eligibility. Meeting one does not cancel a problem with the other. Confirm both before a change of institution or course.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Read the exact subject list, not just the total number of credits.
• Check the current admission-cycle screening notice separately.
• Use the official source before paying for a form or changing course.

Before paying for an application

• Match every compulsory O’Level subject against the result you will upload.
• Confirm the UTME or Direct Entry route for the current session.
• Check whether the institution must be your first choice before screening.
• Confirm that the programme is currently accepting applications; a permanent course page does not mean the form is open today.
• Use only the institution’s official payment and application portal.

Source note: LASU's current official course-requirements checker states that its programme-specific O'Level and UTME combinations are based on the JAMB Brochure. Direct Entry qualifications remain programme-specific and must also satisfy the current LASU screening route.

Official verification

LAG Institutes uses the official institution source for the academic requirement and keeps short-term admission notices separate. If the institution publishes a newer requirement, the newer official instruction takes priority.

How to use this requirement in the current admission cycle

LASU's course checker gives the programme-specific O'Level and UTME subject pattern, while the current screening portal controls the live admission exercise. For 2026/2027 the screening portal requires LASU as first choice, a minimum UTME score of 195 for UTME candidates, the O'Level result on JAMB CAPS and the appropriate UTME/Direct Entry category. Treat the course requirement and the screening rule as two separate checks: you need both.

Before a change of course, compare your actual result line by line with the compulsory subjects. Do not assume a higher UTME score repairs a missing O'Level subject, and do not assume an ND, HND, NCE or JUPEB qualification accepted by one department is accepted by another. Where the Direct Entry paragraph is broad, use the current JAMB brochure and the institution's screening portal before submitting credentials.
