In this post aside listing all NOUN courses available in the institution, I will also be guiding you through their entry admission requirements as well as the all you need to know before selecting a course of study in the National open University of Nigeria.

Below is the list of what to look out for before choosing a course in NOUN.

  1. The Admission Requirements.
  2. The Subject combination for your course.
  3. Cut-Off Mark for the course.

The above are the 3 most important factors that can determine if you will be admitted to study your chosen course in NOUN or not.

Now I will breakdown the 3 factors that you must take cognizance of when searching for courses offered in NOUN.

NOUN Admission Requirements

NOUN admission requirements is the first step you must take note of when searching for available courses in NOUN. At NOUN and other tertiary institutions, courses offered have their distinct entry requirements. However, some requirements are the same for courses under the same faculty. In NOUN for example, you must have obtained at least 5 credit passes in your O’level result which must include mathematics and English language and three other subjects as it relates to your course of study. Note that some courses do not require a Credit in mathematics as a requirement for admission.

Correct Subject Combination

Using the correct subject combination for your course saves you a lot of costs and challenges in the area of obtaining a new change of course and institution form. For example, studying a course require at least 5 credit passes in not more than 2 sittings in WAEC, NECO or its equivalents. Making use of the subjects required for the course is what I mean by making use of the correct subject combination.

Course Cut Off Mark

After confirmation of the admission requirements and correct subject combination for your course, you are to check the course cut off mark. Oftentimes candidates seeking admission into NOUN search for NOUN courses and their cut off mark, some rephrase by checking for courses offered in NOUN and their cut off marks. These show how important cut off marks can be in relation to courses offered.

In summary of the above, you must confirm the admission entry requirements, subject combination for your course and minimum NOUN cut off mark for the course in the previous session as a guide to selecting the course if you must study such in the National open University of Nigeria

Having noted the above, it’s time to list the courses offered in NOUN.
