ABSTRACT: This research investigated the Relationship between Students Entry Qualifications and Academic Performance in Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto-Nigeria. The design employed was correlational of a survey type. The total number of the population was (5,800) students and the sample selected was (361) students using Krejcie and Morgan (1979) table for determining sample size. The technique used for selecting respondents was stratified random sampling. A self-designed instrument for data collection titled ‘Students Entry Qualifications Inventory (SEQI)’ was employed. Pilot study was conducted and reliability index of 0.82 was obtained using Cronbach Alpha at 0.05 significance level. There are three research questions and three hypotheses. However, the data has been analysed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC). It was found in the study that, there was no significant relationship between entry qualifications (WAEC, NECO, NABTEB) and students’ academic performance in Shehu Shagari College of Education Sokoto. It was concluded therefore that, it is not in all cases that students’ entry qualifications can be used to predict academic performance in tertiary institutions. Other factors such as age, work experience and participation in co-curricular activities at secondary level could be explored before admitting students.. The paper recommends that; students with good WAEC, NECO, and NABTEB results should be given admission into the Colleges of Education and adequate measures should be taken by WAEC, NECO and NABTEB in order to improve the quality of the items and in the area of continuous assessment.
