Changing university courses or departments after your first year is possible in Nigerian universities.
You can change from your current department to your dream course after your 100, 200, or 300 level.
Many years ago, I got admitted to study a course I did not apply for in JAMB. I intend to reject the admission to the JAMB CAPS.
But I accepted the admission when I discovered that I could change to the department of my choice after my first year.
You know how you want to study a course, but the university of your choice gives you a different department. A department that you don’t have a single clue of its prospect.
For example, you could apply for Pharmacy and get admission to Biochemistry.
Well, that is how I felt at that time. I felt like a failure because I did not get my dream course.
Sometimes, you could decide to apply for such courses because of your low JAMB and Post UTME scores.
The good news is that you can do an intra-university transfer to your dream course at your university.
Every university has its requirements, but it is possible to change your course.
I will show you in this post how you can successfully change your course in a Nigerian university.
Let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance. I would love to hear from you.

Changing University Course After First Year in Nigeria
The process for changing university courses after gaining admission can be technical. There is a lot of uncertainty in the process. There is no assurance that your change of department application will be successful.
You know other coursemates and students from other departments are attempting the change to their dream course.
The process for department change is competitive, especially for Professional courses like Medicine, Law, Pharmacy, Nursing, Mass Communication, etc.
The secret to your application success is getting all the necessary information. You need to be ahead of your competitors in all ramifications.
Here are some terminologies you must understand as you undergo this process.
Intra-University Transfer
Intra-university transfer is changing from one department or faculty to another in the same university.
Here are the two types of intra-university transfer in Nigerian universities;
- Change of Department – Changing department to another course within the same faculty.
- Change of Faculty – Changing from a department in one faculty to another.
Changing from Political Science to Law is an example of inter-faculty transfer. The change from Linguistics to Mass Communication is an example of intra-faculty transfer.
Inter-University Transfer
An inter-university transfer is changing from one university to another school.
The fact of inter-transfer is that you cannot change to another department in your new school.
For example, you can change from Medical Laboratory Science in UNN to UNILAG. You would not be able to transfer to another course in UNILAG.
Requirements for Changing Course in Nigerian Universities
Here are the requirements for changing courses in Nigerian universities;
- O’Level Subject Combination
- First Year CGPA
- Department Requirements
- Borrow Courses
- Departmental Clearance
- Apply for Change of Course
O’Level Subject Combination
WAEC or NECO O’level subject combination is the main requirement to change university courses.
Your O’level result combination must be correct for the department you want to change.
For example, a student who wants to change to Nursing after the first year must have a credit pass in the following subjects;
- English Language
- Mathematics
- Chemistry
- Physics
- Biology
A wrong O’level result will hinder your chances of changing course. You must determine if your WAEC or NECO result meets the course qualifications.
First Year CGPA
CGPA stands for cumulative grade point average. It is the average of your 100-level results.
A high CGPA of over 4.5 is needed to apply for a change of course.
Because the process is competitive, universities take students with the highest CGPA.
You need to put up an impressive academic performance in your first-year result.
A high CGPA is a gateway to changing the course of your dream.
Department Requirements
Every department in your school has its requirements for change of course. Find out what the requirements are for transfer students.
Some departments may have a policy of not accepting transfer students for a particular academic session.
For example, the Nursing department in some schools does not accept change of department students.
Go to the department you want to change to ask relevant questions. Find a way to meet the HOD or academic adviser of the department.
Borrow Courses
Borrowing relevant extra courses is necessary for a change of course application.
You must take the same courses as the department you want to change to in your first year.
For example, as a Microbiology student, you must borrow Parasitology in your first year.
Find out the courses the students in your preferred department offer, not your course outline.
Departmental Clearance
Departmental clearance is a requirement to transfer to another department.
The HOD of your current department would have to sign you out of the department before you can transfer to another course.
Find out the requirements or what you will need for your transfer application to e successful.
Apply for Change of Course
The requirement for department transfer is to apply for a change of course.
Application for change of department is online.
- Purchase the form
- Fill the form
- Submit your application online
- Submit your document to the university registry department
Alternative to Changing University Course
There are a few alternatives to apply for a change of course.
I recommend you consider these with your transfer application.
Buy JAMB Form
Buying the JAMB form is the best alternative to apply for a change of course. It is the surest way to get your dream course.
You can combine your first-year academics with JAMB preparations. It will be easier if the courses in your 100 level are similar to your JAMB subject combinations.
But ensure that your JAMB preparation does not affect your first-year result.
Read the best strategies on how to pass your JAMB examination.
Apply for Direct Entry
Application for direct entry is after your first-degree program.
Peradventure, you did not succeed with your change of course application or JAMB. You can finish your undergraduate studies and then apply for direct entry.
Levels to Change Course
You can change your course after the 200 level and 300 level.
For the 300 level, you would have to step down to the 200 level.
Some departments would step you down to the 100 level from the 200 level. It depends on the policy of the department.

Good day sir,
please can i switch from microbiology to nursing science in my first year in coou,i will also sit for another jamb just incase
Yes, Ella
It is possible to switch from Microbiology to Nursing Science at COOU.
Good day sir, i got a jamb score of 244 and the cut off mark for medicine in BMU is 245, can i still get admission with one mark less or should i apply for biochemistry and switch to medicine after 100level
Hello Felicia,
I advise you apply for Biochemistry or other related course.
Your JAMB score is low for Medicine and Surgery. Let me know if you have further questions.
Okay sir thank you. Sir, can i switch to medicine after 100level
Yes, it is possible.
But, it won’t be an easy process.
Sir I want to ask can I change from pharmacology to medicine or anesthelogy or nursing in my 100 level in delsu
Sir if I can will I have to start from 100 level again
Yes, Desire
It is possible.
Hi, I also want to transfer and I’m in delsu. have you made up your mind which one you’re transferring to
Good evening sir,is it possible for me to switch to nursing in my first year in unilorin or I should continue microbiology and write another jamb simultaneously?
Hello Glory,
What is your JAMB score?
It would be difficult to switch to Nursing Science. But, I advise you sit for another JAMB simultaneously.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Sir…
Please can I change from medical biochemistry to medicine and surgery after my 100l in uniben
Yes, Tejiri
It is very possible. But, note there is no 100% guarantee on the process.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Hello sir, i changed course in 300l from agric to computer and am currently in 200l, But when i was in 200l in agric i failed a first semester course. So i want to know if i still need to rewrite and pass the course.
It’s unlikely you’ll need to rewrite the failed first-semester course from your 200L year in Agriculture since you’ve switched to Computer Science and are now considered a 200L student in that department.
However, to be absolutely certain, it’s crucial to consult with your academic advisor or the departmental head in Computer Science. They have access to your official records and can provide the most accurate and official information regarding your specific situation and any potential course requirements.
Sir…
Please can I change from medical biochemistry to medicine and surgery after 100l in uniben
Yes, Tejiri
It is very possible in all universities.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Please is it true that UI has stopped inter university transfer???
I’m studying medicine and surgery in FUHSI and wish to transfer to UI in 300 level. Is it still possible and how do I go about it please?
No, Folorunso
UI accepts inter university transfer.
But, you must apply when the application is open.
Let me know if you have further questions.
What is the cutoff mark for medicine in FUHSI please
Glory,
The cut off mark is not yet out. What is your JAMB score?
Is there any admission like omitted admission
Temitope,
You’re asking for what school?
Please I need answers ???
I was transferred from medical laboratory science to medicine and surgery when I was in 200 level and the person said that the admission is like a fresh admission using my last year jamb and post Utme to give me admission this year so I was wondering how is it possible and he told me that he did it like omitted admission method and my school caps are showing medicine now
But my question is that is there admission called omitted admission???????????????????
Tope,
It is possible depending on the school in question.
There’s no standard process referred to as “omitted admission” in Nigerian universities. Universities typically follow established processes for transfers or internal changes of program, which involve defined criteria and procedures. It’s important to get clarity on the specific method used in your case.
It’s crucial to verify the information directly with your university’s admissions office or registrar’s office. They can explain the process followed for your transfer and confirm its legitimacy.
Please what are the courses one need to borrow to switch to medicine and surgery?
Hello Cynthia,
What school?
Hi, Good Afternoon Sir
I was given Vet. Medicine in UI, if I get A CGPA of 4.8 after my 100level, can I change to Medicine

Hello Excel,
It is no problem at all. Nice to meet with you.
Switching course to Law at UI would be difficult. It would be easier to take another JAMB for Law.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Hello Favour,
FULOKOJA is not accredited by JAMB to offer History and International Studies. only History is accredited.
If you want to study History and International Studies, I advise you apply to a school that is accredited by JAMB.
Good morning sir am a student of UNICROSS calabar I’m currently in human kinetics and health education but I don’t like the course,and my second reason is that the course is not yet accredited by NUC

Good morning sir.
I got admission to study history and international studies in Unilorin instead of Law that I applied for, pls sir my 100l session just commenced, can I get a transfer at the end of this session?
Hello Roheemah,
Unfortunately, the possibility of transferring to Law at Unilorin after completing your 100L session in History and International Studies depends on several factors, and it’s impossible to guarantee success.
Contact the Law department or the Admissions office directly to inquire about their transfer policy for students already enrolled in another program at UNILORIN.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Register for the current JAMB exam.
You can do both, but, ensure the JAMB preparation does not affect your grades at school.
Feel free to ask me further questions.

Hello Amarachi,
What university are you trying to make the switch?
Hi Sir.
I previously wanted to apply for psychology in the Lagos State University but I couldn’t. I’m currently studying counseling psychology and I’m intending on doing a transfer soon.
Here’s the little problem:
I have Biology on my o’level but while applying for counseling psychology my subjects combination were English, mathematics, chemistry, civic education and economics.
Do you think this will hinder my transfer process to the department of psychology in any way?
No, Rizqah
It will not hinder your application.
All that is required is for you to have the necessary five (5) subject combinations.

Thanks in anticipation sir.
Hello Darlington,
Your case is complicated because you got admission via direct entry. There are a lot of courses you still need to take since you got started in your second year.
Since you are a student in the Faculty of Basic Medical Sciences, it is possible to switch to Medicine.
But you may have to drop down to the first or second year.
You will need to make further inquiries at the Provost’s office of the College of Medicine to know your stand.
Let me know if you have further questions.

After then, you can try switching to Medicine.
At the moment, you have nothing to lose.

Please sir, how can one change from one’s department to law department if it happens that one secured admission to study law both on jamb caps and school portal in university of Maiduguri but one was unable to be cleared in law department due to the limit (the number of students that will go for school of law has occupied)so, it’s the Deen of faculty of law that advised the person to change his course at school ICT, please how can such person change back to his course of choice, law from 100level back because he didn’t register some law courses.?
Hello Iloko,
I am sorry about your experience.
To change from one department to the Law department in the University of Maiduguri, you will need to follow these steps:
1. Apply for a course transfer to the Faculty of Law. You can do this by submitting a letter of application to the Dean of the Faculty and filling the online application form.
2. Meet with the Dean of the Faculty to discuss your application. The Dean will consider your academic record, your reasons for wanting to transfer, and the availability of spaces in the Law program.
3. If your application is approved, you will be required to take a placement test in law. The placement test will assess your knowledge of the basic concepts of law.

can i switch from mls to mbbs with 237 as jamb score in u.i after 100l
Yes, you can switch from MLS to MBBS with 237 as your JAMB score in UI after 100L. However, it is important to note that the process is not straightforward and there are a few things you need to do in order to be successful.
First, you need to meet the minimum requirements for MBBS at UI. These requirements include a minimum of 200 in JAMB and a credit (C6) in all your O’level subjects, including English Language and Mathematics. You will also need to pass the UI MBBS entrance exam.
Once you have met the minimum requirements, you can apply for a transfer from MLS to MBBS. The application process is usually done through the UI Student Affairs Department. You will need to submit a letter of application, your JAMB result, your O’level results, and your transcript from MLS.
The UI Admissions Committee will review your application and decide whether to approve your transfer. If your transfer is approved, you will be required to take some additional courses in order to catch up with the MBBS program.
It is important to note that there is no guarantee that your transfer will be approved. The UI Admissions Committee will consider a number of factors, including your academic performance, your extracurricular activities, and your personal statement.
Good evening sir…I wanted nursing but I was given anatomy,I graduated with a second class upper degree in anatomy,I still want to pursue my dream course what steps can I take to get direct entry for nursing

Perhaps, you should apply for the next UTME exams.
Let me know if you have further questions.

You can get Biochemistry with your JAMB score, and then switch over to Medicine in your second year.
Please, can I change from plant biology to mls in 200level unilorin?
Yes, you can change from Plant Biology to Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) in 200 level in University of Ilorin (UNILORIN). However, there are a few requirements that you need to meet.
1. You must have a minimum GPA of 3.0 in your first year.
2. You must have taken and passed all the prerequisite courses for MLS, which are:
3. General Chemistry 1 and 2
4. Biology 1 and 2
5. Mathematics 1 and 2
6. Physics 1 and 2
You must apply for the change of course through the University’s Change of Course Portal.
The application process for changing courses at UNILORIN is usually open in the second semester of the 200 level.
It is important to note that there is no guarantee that your change of course request will be granted. The University will consider your academic performance, the availability of space in the MLS program, and other factors.
If your change of course request is granted, you will be required to repeat the first year of the MLS program. This is because the MLS program has a lot of specialized courses that are not taught in the Plant Biology program.
I hope this helps!

Hello Debbie,
The subject combination for Criminology and Security Studies is Use of English, Economics, Mathematics and any of Government, History, Geography, Literature in English, French and Christian Religious Studies/Islamic Studies.
You can apply to Public Administration. Also, it is possible to switch to Criminology and Security Studies after your first year if you meet the requirement.
Good day sir,I was given chemistry in uniben because I couldn’t meet up with the cut off mark of pharmacy,I want to do transfer to another course am having interest in optometry and computer science,pls sir which one do you advise me to transfer to and what do I need to do.
Good day to you too.
I understand that you are interested in transferring from Chemistry to Optometry or Computer Science at UNIBEN. Both are great courses, and it really depends on your personal preferences and strengths which one you would be better suited for.
Optometry is a health sciences course that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. It is a challenging but rewarding course, and if you are interested in a career in healthcare, this could be a good option for you.
Computer Science is a more technical course that focuses on the design, development, and implementation of computer software. It is a rapidly growing field, and there are many job opportunities available for computer scientists.
Here are some things to consider when making your decision:
1. Your academic interests: Which course are you more interested in learning about? Which course do you think you would be better at?
2. Your career goals: What do you want to do after you graduate? Do you want to work in healthcare or in the tech industry?
3. Your personal strengths: What are you good at? Which course would play to your strengths?
Once you have considered these factors, you can start to research the two courses in more detail. You can talk to current students and graduates, and you can also read online reviews.
To transfer to another course at UNIBEN, you will need to meet the following requirements:
1. You must have a minimum of a 2nd class lower division in your current course.
2. You must have completed at least 100 level courses.
3. You must apply for the transfer in the approved academic session.
The application process for transferring courses at UNIBEN is usually announced in the university’s academic calendar.
Let me know if you have further questions.

Congratulations on your admission.
To answer your question, it depends on the university and your qualifications.
But usually, you will not step down to the first year as a direct entry entrant.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Sir pls, what courses should i borrow to switch from physiology to medicine? ?
John,
Medicine and Physiology students offer the same course at UNN.
Good evening sir, I just got admission to study physiology in UNN, Is it possible for me to switch to medicine & Surgery? If yes, pls I need more guidelines ??

I advise you step down to study your dream course.
Wish you the best of luck.

Good afternoon sir
Will I applied to study food technology in UI but now I’m actually realising my passion for MBBS but I don’t want to take another jamb
So I was planning on taking additional courses this 100lvl
Is that really possible so that I could cross to MBBS
If so what are the additional courses I could take . . Also right now I’m been told that I will not be allowed to take that zoo
It is possible to change course from Food Technology to MBBS in the University of Ibadan, but it is not as simple as just taking some additional courses. You will need to meet certain requirements, including:
1.A minimum of a Second Class Upper Division (CGPA of 3.50) in Food Technology.
2. The approval of the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine.
If you meet these requirements, you will be able to apply for a change of course. However, it is important to note that there is no guarantee that your application will be successful. The Dean of the Faculty of Medicine will consider a number of factors, including the availability of spaces in the MBBS program, your academic performance, and your motivation for wanting to change courses.
If you are serious about changing courses to MBBS, I would recommend that you start by meeting with the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine to discuss your options. They will be able to give you more specific information about the requirements and the application process.
As for your concern about being told that they will not sign your course form, I would suggest that you try to speak with your course adviser.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Sir,I recently got admission into university of ilorin
First,I was transferred from medicine and surgery to food science through ijmbe program. So,my question is would it be possible for me if I change my course to mbbs in 200level in unilorin. Infact,can I get your phone number because I really want to ask questions from you. Thanks.
It is not possible for you to change your course to MBBS in 200 level in University of Ilorin.
According to the University of Ilorin website, the only department that can be crossed to Medicine and Surgery in 200L is Anatomy and Physiology.
The reason for this is that Medicine and Surgery is a very competitive course and there are limited spaces available. The University of Ilorin only allows students who have studied Anatomy and Physiology in their first year to change to Medicine and Surgery in their second year.
If you are still interested in studying Medicine and Surgery, you can apply to transfer to another university that offers this course. You can also apply to retake the UTME and apply for Medicine and Surgery in the next admission cycle.
I hope this helps!

Hello Favour,

I recommend you seek further advice from your course adviser.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Good morning sir, I’m very sorry for replying to your comment but I tried to make one on my own but I didn’t see!! So I was given admission to study EMT( Environmental management and toxicology) in the university of Benin despite getting a very high postutme score!! I want to know now if I can transfer to Nursing in 200 level, what are the things I might need, what level will I be in if the transfer is successful(is it 100 level or 200 level) and how many percent success is there in it?
Thank you very much as I await your reply!!
Hello Sharon,
It is possible to change from Environmental management and toxicology to Nursing Science.
But your chances are 50-50.
The requirements are obtaining the change of course form and getting a high CGPA.
After success switching, you will continue from the 200 level as long as you took the required courses in your first year.
Also, I recommend you visit the Department of Nursing Science at UNIBEN to make further inquiries.
Feel free to ask me further questions.

Hello Sir, please is it possible for me to change my course from microbiology to nursing in Lasu? And what are the requirements?
Yes, it is possible to change your course from microbiology to nursing at Lagos State University (LASU), but there are specific requirements and procedures that you must follow.
Some of the requirements for changing your course include:
1. Meeting the required cut-off mark for the nursing programme
2. Having the required O’level results with credit passes in relevant subjects such as English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
3. Meeting any other specified requirement by the school.
After obtaining the change of course form, please fill it out and submit it to the admission office of LASU. Your application will be considered, and if successful, you will be offered admission to study nursing.
It’s important to note that changing your course may attract a fee, and the university may state the deadline for submitting the change of course form.
Therefore, you should make inquiries and take necessary actions as soon as possible to avoid missing out on the opportunity.

Covenant,
Making the switch is possible, but it is more feasible if you are switching from any of the courses from Basic Medical Science.
Before now, the University of Ibadan does not accept double admission.
The policy may have changed recently, but you may have to apply to another school to be on the safe side or make confirmation from your course adviser.
Pls I have a question
I got admission to study transport management in olabisi onabanjo university,my jamb score was 260 and post utme 40% which made it impossible
But transport management and Accounting my dream course are in the same faculty in the school,i’m about to enter 100l. Pls it is possible for me to change my course later on
Or should I write jamb next year and use it as a backup to get admission to 200l straight and not go back to 100l.i don’t understand the step tho,pls help me and put more highlights. I would really appreciate.
Thanks
Hello Freedom,
It is possible to change to Accounting. But as you already know, there is no guarantee your application will be accepted.
The best option usually is to sit for another JAMB exam.
Feel free to ask me any questions. I would love to help.
Hi, this is Favour.
I applied to study law at the University of Ibadan but was given Educational Management. Howbeit, I was told, I stood a chance going by the school rules to perform an inter-faculty transfer to the Faculty of Law.
Please, I’d love to enquire what’re the necessary guidelines I need to do and also, if the transfer form at the University of Ibadan is available at the moment.
In addition, I solicit your guidance regarding an itch free transfer.
Thanks in anticipation of a favourable response from you.
P:S Your invaluable advice on this platform didn’t go unnoticed…
Hello Favour,
Yes, you can indeed switch to Law.
But the process is not usually straightforward.
I advise you to work hard to get an almost perfect CGPA in your first year.
Try to make direct inquiries from other students that switched to Law. They could help you with specific directions and instructions.
Also, sitting for another JAMB is a good backup option.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Sir I was given admission to study chemistry education can I switch to anatomy during my 100 level. And do I need to attend the classes for both anatomy and chemistry education in my first year.
