Top 10 toughest Universities to get into in Nigeria

Some experts argue that there is no such thing as most difficult university to get admission into. Admission into any institution, they believe, may be easy or hard depending on the level of preparation on the side of applicants. This school of thought may be true elsewhere, but not in Nigeria. Down here, it is cheap to gain admission into some schools compared to a few others.

This article is not to discourage those of prospective students that have chosen the under listed schools as their most preferred universities in JAMB. 

It is however, a way to motivate all those who applied for the schools to read harder in the forthcoming Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination. It’s always
survival of the fittest!
