What you need to know about less competitive courses and most competitive courses in Unilorin

Remember that admission chances lies on the course you applied to, a lot of candidates apply into the University of Ilorin yearly.

From the information we ealier conveyed in an article “ How Does Unilorin give admission ” we can see that one of the criteria that affects admission is course competitiveness.

If a lot of candidates choosed a particular course compared to others, it’s therefore obvious that those courses will be competitive.

 

Also, when a course is lucrative, i. e there are lots of employement and huge pay on the arising career of a course, then that course will certainly be competitive.

 

Erstwhile, there are other courses that are less competitive, those courses actually don’t have lots of candidates applying compared to the competitive courses.

 

Thereof, when a course becomes competitive, it results to a more tougher admission chance, you will have to compete with alot of aspirants to be admitted othewise, you won’t be admitted.

The University of Ilorin is that institution that will offer you another course rather than the one you applied to, this happens if you choose a competitive course and they probaly reach the admission quota or you didn’t perform well enough in the school entrance examination outside off your UTME score.

 

So therefore, to be admitted into the University of Ilorin, it is wise to choose a less competitive course if you are not ready to work so hard for the competitive courses.

 

One more thing to note:

The fact that these courses are less competitive those note mean that they are not good courses, in fact many of the courses here are very much lucrative and they pay really much, you would end up having a very good career in these courses, no course is bad, it depends on your interest.

Courses like, Agriculture, Anatomy and some others are hot cake in the Industry, so do not underestimate any course.

 

A course that might be competitive for one school might be less competitive in another school and  course which is a less competitive in a particular institution might be competitve in another institution. It all drives down to the facilities available an a particular institution and it varies by department.

 

An institution not having so much facility for students in her Pharmacy Department  instance does for instance will decide to make the course less easier to gain admission into, it doesn’t mean that Pharmacy (as an example) is not a good course.

So that is how competitive and less competitive works. There are some good Engineering courses in the list that you can apply to.
