Does College of Health Require JAMB in Nigeria?

One of the most common questions from prospective students is whether a college of health requires JAMB. In Nigeria, the majority of colleges of health technology and schools of health science admit students into diploma and certificate programmes without the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) UTME. Admission is primarily based on O’Level results (usually five credits including English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics) and the institution’s own screening or entrance assessment. Silver Gate College of Health follows this general pattern for its diploma programmes. Candidates should always confirm the exact requirements for the specific session on the official portal, as policies can occasionally differ by programme or regulatory update.
