Overview

Sikiru Adetona College of Education, Science and Technology (SACOETEC)—historically known as Tai Solarin College of Education (TASCE)—is a premier state-owned tertiary institution in Ogun State. Recently renamed to honor the Awujale of Ijebuland, SACOETEC is a powerhouse for pedagogical training, offering a massive array of over 60 dual-major NCE programs and prestigious NUC-approved Bachelor's Degrees in affiliation with Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU).

Situated in the tranquil and culturally rich town of Omu-Ijebu, the campus provides a highly focused academic atmosphere devoid of city distractions. The college features modern science laboratories, comprehensive vocational workshops, a digitized library, and subsidized on-campus hostels. Students experience a blend of rich Ijebu culture and progressive technological learning under the new 'Science and Technology' mandate.

💡 Pro Tip: Admission to SACOETEC (formerly TASCE) is highly accessible, offering pathways for almost every academic situation. For Full-Time NCE, a JAMB score of 100 guarantees you a spot with 5 O'Level credits. If you have a JAMB score of 100 but lack full credits, apply for the 'NCE Foundation Programme'. If you missed JAMB entirely, you can enroll via the 'Four-Contact Sessions Programme'. For the OOU-affiliated Bachelor's Degrees, aim for a JAMB score of 160. Application requires a ₦5,000 fee payable online via the college portal.

Admission Requirements

For Full-Time NCE, candidates must possess a minimum of five (5) O'Level credit passes (including English and Mathematics) at 1 or 2 sittings in NECO/WASSCE/GCE. NABTEB is accepted but requires 5 credits at a single sitting. TC II, RSA, City and Guilds, and FCTC are acceptable for Technical courses. Senior Arabic and Islamic Studies Certificates are also accepted.

Direct Entry Rules

Direct Entry (DE) candidates applying for affiliated Degree programs must possess a minimum of a Merit grade in their NCE or a recognized National Diploma (ND) alongside their basic O'Level requirements.

Post UTME Screening Format

The college employs a digital admission process. Candidates activate an account on the admission portal, pay a ₦5,000 application fee online, fill out the application form, upload scanned documents, and print a Screening Slip for physical verification.
