Why some universities do not offer every course
Not every Nigerian university offers every JAMB-listed course. Universities are either comprehensive, covering most disciplines, or specialised, focusing on a narrower range such as technology, agriculture or theology.
The National Universities Commission accredits each programme separately, and the absence of a course in an institution's catalogue usually reflects either the institution's strategic focus or the fact that the NUC has not yet approved that specific programme for the institution. EBSU's current catalogue is shaped by the institution's strategic focus and the programmes the NUC has accredited so far which is why Broadcast Journalism sits outside the EBSU undergraduate offer.
Frequently asked questions
Does EBSU offer Broadcast Journalism for postgraduate study?
Broadcast Journalism is not currently in the EBSU undergraduate catalogue tracked in this guide. Postgraduate availability is a separate question handled by the institution's school of postgraduate studies, and should be confirmed on the official EBSU portal.
When might EBSU add Broadcast Journalism to its programmes?
New undergraduate programmes require National Universities Commission accreditation and the development of curricula, faculty and infrastructure. There is no public timeline for EBSU adding Broadcast Journalism, and candidates targeting the course should plan around institutions that already offer it.
What is the closest alternative to Broadcast Journalism at EBSU?
English Language at EBSU is the closest related programme in the current catalogue. It shares the academic foundation with Broadcast Journalism, and may suit candidates with related career goals.
How do I check NUC-approved courses at EBSU?
The National Universities Commission publishes the full list of accredited programmes at each Nigerian university. Use the NUC database or the official EBSU admissions portal to confirm the latest accredited programmes before applying for any course.
Can I transfer to study Broadcast Journalism elsewhere after starting at EBSU?
Inter-university transfers in Nigeria are possible but bureaucratic, and typically require strong academic standing in the first year. A cleaner route is to apply directly to an institution that offers Broadcast Journalism, either as a first choice from the start or via the change-of-institution window during the JAMB admission cycle.
