Radiography, Radiation Science, or Bachelor of Medical Laboratory Science with scores between 150 and 219 can find alternative avenues in Anatomy, Physiology, and other related Sciences.

Changing Your Choice of Institution

If you initially did not select BSUM as your first-choice institution but now wish to join, you can effect a change of institution through the JAMB portal. Ensure you meet the specific score requirements for your desired course before making the switch.
