Have you ever wondered how to gain admission into the 200-level of your desired university without writing the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME)? Are you considering alternatives that guarantee success? Understanding IJMB and JUPEB might be the answer. Both programmes offer reliable pathways to further education and simplify the admission process.

This guide provides a detailed explanation of these Advanced Level programmes, admission requirements, costs, and how to apply. By the end, you’ll know which option suits your academic goals best.

What Is IJMB?

The Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB) is an Advanced Level programme established in 1974 by Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) under its legal statutes. This programme is approved by the Federal Government and accepted by universities across Nigeria.

The IJMB programme allows students to gain admission into the 200-level of any participating university without UTME. It is a well-structured initiative that operates through coordinating centres in various institutions. The programme spans 8–10 months, comprising two semesters of intensive academic work.

What Is JUPEB?

The Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) is another Advanced Level programme designed to help students gain direct entry admission into the 200-level of Nigerian universities. Established by the University of Lagos, JUPEB is similar to IJMB in structure and duration but differs in its moderating body.

Like IJMB, JUPEB exposes students to rigorous academic training over two semesters, making it a reliable alternative for securing admission. Candidates who complete the programme successfully can apply to any Nigerian university using their JUPEB certificate.
