Frequently asked questions
Let us go over some frequently asked questions about JPTS university that you might have.
Does JPTS offer Nursing?
No. JPTS does not offer Nursing. JPTS is not accredited by the NMCN to offer Nursing science either as a University or a Nursing school.
If you are interested in studying Nursing, you should apply to either a Nursing school or University in Nigeria that is accredited by NMCN.
Does JPTS offer medical courses?
No. JPTS does not offer medicine and surgery or other medical courses.
It is not accredited by the MDCN to offer medicine.
Taking medical courses at such an institution can prove to be a waste of effort if you intend to actually practise in Nigeria.

Certificates from JPTS can be used to earn credits while seeking admission into higher institutions especially outside Nigeria.

Please sir,does JPTS offer health care and nursing
Sir, please do JPTS offer the course linguistics?
Does Jpts offer mass communication

So us studying electrical electronic engineering for 4 years is a waste.
Yes and no. It depends. If you are passionate about it then combine it with learning lucrative electrical works skills like automobile electrician or similar that has maintenance value. There are opportunities but you need to be intentional.

Is there an institution of JTPS in Nasarawa?
Currently No.
Sir, you say currently there’s no JPTS institution in nasarawa state but me I am currently in nasarawa state, akwanga town running jpts program.
So I understand could it be that the center is scam
Please pardon my mistake. I have double checked. There is a center their. I mixed it up with another state. Thank you.
There has been debates online about the validity of their certificate especially, in Nigeria to further studies in the university and if it’s really accepted by the nysc. Please sir, could clarify of this issue?
Lastly, there is rumor that you will have to complete your studies in a university in Togo to obtain certificate… comments on this will really go a long way, sir.
JPTS is actually not a university. Kindly disregard any discussions about NYSC. I wouldn’t advise anyone to approach JPTS like getting a first degree. Just see it as a professional training programme.
As for the Togo rumors, I can confirm that they are true. You can only do NYSC in Nigeria if you completed a first degree or diploma equivalent and JPTS is not accredited as a higher institution by NUC. So, the only way you can do NYSC after finishing from JPTS is to get a degree from a university they have affiliation with. That is why it is that way.
Wow!!
Thank you for the response sir!
You are welcome
Please sir, do you have any insight about the authenticity of the affiliated university, Global wealth University, Togo with JPTS?
Just making some findings and discovered so many controversies.
Good day sir, please I need some clarifications on the authenticity of our study in JPTS. From my admission letter it has been stated that JPTS is affiliated to South America University and Global Wealth University etc. But trying to be sure of what am actually doing, I made some findings in NUC portal, the above mentioned Institutions are not accredited by NUC. What is our fate?
They are not Nigerian universities so they may not be known to NUC
It says here that jpts does not offer medical courses so what about the HCM –Health Care Management course they offer or are we wasting our time
That is different from conventional medical course like MMBS, MLS, Nursing, radiography, e.t.c
Please sir i currently get an admission in jpts to study med lab science is course accredited
Please I need verification
Please can those of us currently studying health care management proceed to nursing In global wealth university?
Yes, It is easy to get in.
Can a student of JPTS Lagos or any state be transfer to another state to continue the study there.
Hi sir, does JPTS offer nursing and is it accredited

Dear Professor,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to address a concern regarding the excessive charges being imposed on students at JPTS.
When JPTS first arrived in my state, I encouraged several students to enroll, which they did and others also joined in other states.
Earlier this year, these students successfully graduated and completed their projects, only to be informed that they must pay 200,000 naira before their defense and mobilization for NYSC. While some were able to raise the funds, others are struggling to meet this financial requirement.
Upon arriving at the school, they were informed that they would need to pay an additional 150,000 naira to travel to Lagos.
I am aware that most of them are unable to raise such a large amount of money in a short period of time. As a result, I am now perceived as a negative influence for encouraging them to join JPTS.
These students come from impoverished farming backgrounds, where even meeting basic needs is a challenge for many of them.
Therefore, I kindly request your assistance in addressing this issue so that they can afford the 200,000 naira mobilization fee. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
But he said earlier, that there’s nothing like NYSC in jpts
