The Peaceland University Industrial Chemistry cut off mark is 150 in the UTME, the national minimum JAMB set for all universities in 2026/2027. Peaceland University, Enugu has not published a cut-off of its own for Industrial Chemistry, and it was not on the list of universities that declared their own minimums at JAMB’s 2026 policy meeting. If you reach 150 and meet the subject rules, you can be considered.
2027/2028 update: Peaceland cut-off marks usually stay the same from one year to the next, so the figures on this page are what 2027/2028 candidates should plan with. They come from the latest official notice (2026/2027). If the 2027/2028 notice changes anything, we will update this page.
Industrial Chemistry is on JAMB’s course list for Peaceland as Industrial Chemistry, it is in the 2026/2027 advert, and Peaceland’s own homepage lists B.Sc. Industrial Chemistry beside a newer B.Sc. Petroleum Chemistry. It is not on any published list of the programmes NUC accredited at Peaceland after the late 2025 visit, which I explain below. The subject rules are where most candidates slip: Mathematics is compulsory in the UTME for this course, and Physics is a required O’level credit.

Peaceland opened in 2023, so there is very little history to show. Treat any older “Peaceland Industrial Chemistry cut-off” as made up unless it links to a Peaceland notice.
Safe target score for Industrial Chemistry at Peaceland (my advice)
This is my judgement, not a Peaceland rule. Industrial Chemistry is rarely oversubscribed at private universities. Peaceland’s total intake is capped by its NUC quota, and its Pro-Chancellor said at the second matriculation that qualified applicants were being turned away (TheCable), so do not plan on the bare minimum. The bigger risk for most applicants is the subject combination, not the score.
| Your UTME score | My read for Peaceland Industrial Chemistry |
|---|---|
| Below 150 | Not eligible for any Nigerian university this session |
| 150 to 164 | Eligible; your Mathematics and Chemistry grades will be looked at closely |
| 165 to 179 | A fair chance with all five credits |
| 180 and above | Strong for this course at Peaceland |
For the 2027 UTME I would aim for 170 or more.
Peaceland Industrial Chemistry UTME subject combination and O’level requirements
JAMB’s Industrial Chemistry entry has no remark naming Peaceland, so the general lines are what you must meet.
| Requirement | What JAMB’s brochure says for Industrial Chemistry |
|---|---|
| UTME subjects | Use of English, Chemistry, Mathematics and one of Physics, Biology or Agricultural Science |
| O’level | Five credits: English Language, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, and Biology or Agricultural Science |
| Direct Entry | Two A-level passes in Chemistry and Mathematics, or an ND in Science Technology or a relevant programme plus the UTME requirements |
| Peaceland-specific remarks | None |
| Exams accepted | WAEC, NECO or NABTEB (Peaceland has not published a sitting rule) |
Mathematics is fixed, so a candidate who registers Chemistry, Biology and Physics without Mathematics does not meet the requirement. For the fourth subject I would write Physics. Many universities named in JAMB’s remarks insist on Physics alongside Chemistry, so Physics keeps most other Industrial Chemistry programmes open if you change school.
At O’level you need Physics as well as Chemistry, Mathematics and English, with Biology or Agricultural Science as the fifth credit. Agricultural Science is allowed under the general rule, though a few named universities (Bowen, FUOYE and KASU) refuse it. Peaceland is not among them.
Direct Entry into Industrial Chemistry at Peaceland
JAMB’s base Direct Entry line accepts two A-level passes in Chemistry and Mathematics, or an ND in Science Technology or another relevant programme together with the UTME requirements. This is one of the few science courses where the general brochure line names an ND route, which helps Science Laboratory Technology diploma holders. Peaceland’s FAQ says ND, NCE, IJMB, JUPEB, HND or equivalent holders may apply for Direct Entry, but it gives no grades or entry level for Industrial Chemistry, so confirm those before paying.
How Peaceland screens Industrial Chemistry candidates
No Post-UTME test, dates or aggregate formula for 2026/2027 has been published in any source I could reach. Peaceland’s website says undergraduate admission for 2026/2027 is open, applications go through its e-admission page, it has no authorised agents, and payment goes only through the official portal or the Admissions Office.
| Detail | Peaceland 2026/2027 |
|---|---|
| Admission open | Yes (advert of 28 April 2026 and university homepage) |
| Where to apply | E-admission page linked from peacelanduni.edu.ng |
| Post-UTME test | Not announced for science courses (the only publicised Peaceland test, on 18 September 2024, was for six health courses) |
| Form and acceptance fees | ₦10,000 each (fee schedule); dates not published |
| Not your first choice? | The FAQ says you may apply, then do a JAMB change of institution |
| Documents | O’level result, JAMB result slip, birth certificate, passport photograph, local government identification letter, NIN slip, then acceptance and school fees receipts |
| How offers are made | Through JAMB CAPS only |
Worked example for an Industrial Chemistry candidate
Uche scored 181 in English, Chemistry, Biology and Physics. Her O’level has credits in English, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and Biology.
- Score: 181 minus 150 = 31 above JAMB’s minimum, and above my 170 target.
- Subjects: she did not write Mathematics in the UTME. JAMB’s Industrial Chemistry line requires it, so her combination fails.
- What still works: her subjects fit Peaceland’s Microbiology (Biology, Chemistry and Physics or Mathematics), so she could accept a change to that course if Peaceland offers it on CAPS.
- Next year: if she wants Industrial Chemistry, she must sit the 2027 UTME with Mathematics.
Compare Tobe, who scored 158 in English, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics with all five O’level credits. He is only 8 above the minimum but his file is complete. He is eligible; whether 158 is enough depends on how many stronger applicants Peaceland gets within its quota, so he should apply early and also have a second choice ready.
How to apply for Industrial Chemistry at Peaceland, step by step
- Get your JAMB profile code: send NIN, a space and your 11-digit NIN to 55019 or 66019 from the line linked to your NIN.

- Check CAPS: at efacility.jamb.gov.ng, choose Check Admission Status, then Access my CAPS.
- Accept within four weeks: our JAMB CAPS guide explains each status, including a change of course offer.
- Pay acceptance and fees: the FAQ says fees vary by programme, instalments are allowed under university rules and scholarships exist. Peaceland’s fee schedule lists ₦200,000 at 100 level for the Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences, with a ₦10,000 form and ₦10,000 acceptance fee; confirm on the portal before you pay.
Warning
Peaceland says it has no authorised agents. Free-ad posts that print a phone number and sell Peaceland forms, lists or “slots” are not the university. Pay only through Peaceland’s portal or Admissions Office, and expect every genuine offer on JAMB CAPS.
Peaceland College of Education, Enugu is a separate institution that admits NCE students. It does not offer a B.Sc. in Industrial Chemistry.
Studying Industrial Chemistry at Peaceland University
Peaceland’s FAQ puts B.Sc. Industrial Chemistry in the Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences, with Microbiology, Biotechnology, Physics and Electronics and Science Laboratory Technology (the April 2026 advert had grouped them under Science and Computing). The homepage also lists a B.Sc. Petroleum Chemistry, which is not on JAMB’s Peaceland list or in the FAQ. The university has two Enugu campuses, MSP Campus in Independence Layout and Emene Campus, and has not said which one hosts the chemistry courses. The B.Sc. normally runs four years for UTME entrants in Nigeria; Peaceland has not stated it.
Accreditation
Peaceland posted on 1 May 2026 that NUC granted full accreditation to several programmes after its October and November 2025 evaluation, naming Nursing, Medical Laboratory Science and Accountancy. The fuller lists published by DTW Tutorials, Myschoolgist and Allschool (17 to 20 programmes) include Microbiology and Physics with Electronics but not Industrial Chemistry, and I found no NUC report for it. Its accreditation status is therefore not confirmed. In a university this young, that usually means the programme has not yet had its accreditation visit, but ask Peaceland to confirm.
What you study and where it leads
- Foundation: general chemistry, mathematics and physics in the first year.

Mistakes that cost Industrial Chemistry applicants a Peaceland place
- No Mathematics in the UTME: it is compulsory for this course.
- No Physics credit: JAMB’s general O’level line requires it.
- Registering “Chemistry” or “Petroleum Chemistry”: the course on JAMB’s Peaceland list is Industrial Chemistry. Pick that name.
- O’level not on CAPS: no upload, no offer.
- Missing the cycle: JAMB set 30 November 2026 as the 2026/2027 admission deadline for private universities.

I am Jude Chinecherem, a final-year MBBS student at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. I know what it feels like to want an education your family cannot afford. When my parents could not pay for my schooling, I had to learn how to find scholarships and work the system out on my own, with nobody to guide me. I came out the other side, and now I share everything I learned so the next student does not have to figure it out alone. This is the advice I wish someone had given me back then.
