Please I have 245 in JAMB for Nursing at AE-FUNAI, but my O'Level is two sittings (WAEC and NECO). Will they accept it?

Hi Somto, AE-FUNAI strictly requires one sitting only for Medicine and Surgery, Nursing Science, Law, and Medical Laboratory Science. With two sittings, we strongly advise changing your course to Anatomy, Physiology, Human Nutrition and Dietetics, or Microbiology where two sittings are accepted.

Does internal screening mean we won't write any Post-UTME exam?

Yes Miracle! Internal screening means AE-FUNAI will grade your JAMB score alongside your verified O'Level grades (A1, B2, B3, etc.) to compute your aggregate score.
