Are you a secondary school graduate looking for a smart way to gain Direct Entry admission into 200-level in Nigerian universities? The IMAP IJMB Program Admission 2025/2026 session is now open, and this might just be the golden opportunity you need to fast-track your academic journey.
In this blog post, you’ll discover everything you need to know about the IJMB program at IMAP — including entry requirements, application fee, the full step-by-step application process, and important contact numbers in case you need help. Let’s dive in.
What is the IMAP IJMB Program?
The Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB) is a one-year advanced level program that allows successful candidates to secure Direct Entry (DE) admission into many Nigerian universities. With the IJMB certificate, you can skip UTME and gain admission directly into 200-level, provided you meet the required university conditions.
The IMAP IJMB program runs for twelve (12) months and is designed to equip students with deep academic knowledge in their chosen subjects. After completion, candidates can use their result to apply to various universities that accept IJMB.
Why Choose IJMB Over JAMB?
For many students, the traditional JAMB UTME route can be stressful, highly competitive, and uncertain. But with the IJMB programme:
-
You are exempted from UTME.
-
You gain a better chance of university admission through Direct Entry.

You can combine your studies with skill acquisition during the 12-month programme.
-
IJMB is accepted by over 70 Nigerian universities.
This makes IJMB a highly preferred alternative, especially for students who want to study competitive courses.
