The Federal Ministry of Education has announced that Mathematics will no longer be a compulsory subject for Arts students seeking admission into universities and polytechnics across Nigeria.
According to the ministry, the policy adjustment aims to align admission requirements with field-specific competencies, ensuring that students pursuing courses in the humanities and creative arts are evaluated based on more relevant subjects.
Education experts have described the move as a progressive step toward curriculum flexibility, though some stakeholders have called for clear implementation guidelines to avoid confusion during the next admission cycle.
