ABSTRACT
This study analysed 60:40 ratio admission policy implementation for science and arts related courses in Kwara state tertiary institutions between 2011/2012-2015/2016 academic sessions. Content Analysis Research Design Approach (CARDA) was adopted for the study. The population of the study comprised of Thirty-Six Thousand Two Hundred and Eighty-Seven (36287) candidates offered admission for five academic sessions (2011-2016) was used. Purposive sampling technique was used for the study. Three research questions were raised and three hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The data collected were analysed using One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with the aid of computer Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.00. The result of the study revealed that an average of 48.35% candidates offered admission into Kwara State tertiary institution were in the area of science related courses as against 51.65% offered admission in area of art related courses. This fall short of 60% policy in favour of science courses as against 40% in favour of art courses by the Federal Government of Nigeria through the National Policy on Education. The finding revealed that there was not significance difference between students offered science related courses and student offered art related courses in Kwara state tertiary institutions between 2011-2016. There is need to showcase successful female scientists and engineers and create a culture of mentorship and role models.
