To secure admission into UNILAG, aspirants must meet specific cut-off marks. In this blog, we will provide you with a detailed overview of UNILAG’s JAMB and departmental cut-off marks for the [year]/[nyear] admission cycle.
Overview of UNILAG Cut Off Marks
Entry into UNILAG for students is based on their performance in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted by JAMB and the post-UTME screening. The selection process involves two essential cut-off marks.
- JAMB Cut-Off Mark: This standard is set by JAMB for all universities. The threshold for UNILAG is 200.
- Departmental Cut-Off Mark: Each department set this after the post-UTME examination. It differs among faculties.
Securing the cut-off marks is crucial for being eligible for admission into UNILAG. Your chances improve with higher scores. Let’s delve into the specifics of the cut-off marks.
UNILAG JAMB Cut Off Mark
For the [year]/[nyear] academic session, the University of Lagos (UNILAG) has set the cut-off mark at 200.
This means that candidates aspiring to participate in the UNILAG post-UTME screening must attain a minimum score of 200 in the UTME exam. It’s important to note that certain departments might have a higher cut-off mark for the post-UTME.
The 200 JAMB cut-off mark is a standard for all faculties and courses at UNILAG. Candidates who meet or exceed this score can proceed to the post-UTME stage.
UNILAG Merit Cut-Off Marks
After the JAMB exam, the University of Lagos (UNILAG) conducts post-UTME exams across various departments. The admission process involves admitting students who meet the cut-off marks for each program.
The merit departmental cut-off is the minimum score that candidates, who have scored 200 or more in JAMB, need to have a chance of gaining admission.
The table below presents the merit cut-off marks for different programmes at UNILAG for the [year]/[nyear] academic session. These marks are based on the official announcement by the university. It’s important to note that these cut-off marks apply only to candidates who applied via UTME. Direct Entry (DE) applicants will have different criteria.
