The School of Preliminary and Continuing Education (SPACE) at Sule Lamido University (SLU), Kafin Hausa, Jigawa State, has opened applications for its University Preparatory Programme (UPP) for the 2026/2027 academic session.

SLUK releases University Preparatory Programme Admission form, 2026/2027

The UPP is a full-time, one-session remedial programme designed to build a strong academic foundation and help students secure admission into 100-level degree programmes at Sule Lamido University.

Available Academic Streams

Instruction in the UPP covers three major academic areas:

  • Sciences
  • Humanities
  • Social and Management Sciences

Eligibility and Entry Categories

Applicants with SSCE O'Level results (or equivalent) can apply under one of two categories:

  • Category A: Candidates who already have a minimum of five (5) O'Level credit passes in relevant subjects, including English Language and Mathematics, in not more than two sittings.
  • Category B: Candidates with a minimum of three (3) O'Level credit passes. If you apply under Category B, you must remedy your missing O'Level credits before you can be absorbed into a degree programme.

How Absorption into 100-Level Works

To transition into a regular 100-level degree course at SLUK after completing the UPP, you must:

  1. Pass the UPP remedial examinations.
  2. Possess five (5) relevant O'Level credits, including Mathematics and English Language.
  3. Score the minimum required SLUK UTME points.

Good to know: If you pass the UPP exams but do not immediately meet the O'Level or UTME requirements, your UPP result remains valid for two admission sessions.

If I enter through UPP Category B with 3 credits, do I still need to write JAMB next year?

Yes Zynar. To be absorbed into 100-level at SLUK, you must pass the UPP programme, make up your 5 O'Level credits (including English and Maths), and obtain the minimum SLUK UTME cut-off mark.
