🎯

Admission Hack

OSCOTECH has very strict departmental O'Level subject requirements, particularly for Environmental and Engineering courses. Always verify your subject combination against their official portal guidelines before paying the non-refundable application fee. If you miss out on regular admission, their Daily Part-Time (DPT) program is an excellent and highly structured alternative.

🏠

Campus Survival

While there are campus hostels, the majority of students prefer living off-campus in the surrounding Esa-Oke community. Off-campus accommodation is quite affordable. Freshers are advised to arrive early before resumption to secure good apartments close to the school gate.
