The University of Ibadan (UI) is now offering a lifeline to 2024 UTME aspirants who scored less than 200.
Professor Babatunde Omobowale, director of the Distance Learning Centre, stated that candidates who were unable to participate in the 2024 UTME can still achieve admission through open distance e-learning.
The professor suggested that individuals who scored below the cut-off number of 200 could still apply for the Premier University program.
The center, set to open on September 2, provides a blended learning experience that allows learners to participate in real-time lectures from any location, including home, office, or on the go.

The professor highlighted that UI ODeL offers reasonable and flexible payment plans, with students paying only N50,000 to register and participate in course activities, with the remaining balance before exams.
Those who scored below 200 in JAMB UTME or did not sit for the UTME can enroll in university undergraduate programs in ODeL mode, such as BSc Computer Science, BSc Economics, BSc Sociology, BSc Psychology, BSc Political Science, BA Communications and Language Arts, Bachelor of Social Work, and Bachelor of Nursing Science.
“The University also encourages learners seeking inter-university transfers into its ODeL programs, according to existing criteria. To apply for NUC-accredited programs, applicants must submit a letter of interest and transcripts from their existing university, either private or public.
