The First Choice And Second Choice Rule
Let me try to break this down in a simple way.
First Choice means your top or best choice while others are alternatives. Also, the Second Choice is an alternative to the First Choice.
But some universities will not allow you to pick them as your second choice except the first choice.
If you do otherwise you will not be given admission by that university even if you score high in JAMB and meet all the admission requirements.
That means you don't have the intention of gaining admission into the university, you are just picking it as an alternative if anything goes wrong.
However, some universities will allow you to pick them as your second choice anytime any day.
That means if anything goes wrong with your first choice you can settle for the second choice.
But how do you know universities that accept the first choice and second choice? This article will guide and help you out.
