UNILORIN Cut Off Mark 2026/2027 | University of Ilorin Cut-off Mark

Prospective applicants to the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN) for the 2026/2027 academic session must meet specific score requirements before they can be considered for admission. The university has set both a general JAMB cut‑off mark and course‑specific (departmental) cut‑off marks that applicants must achieve to participate in the Post‑UTME screening and eventual admission.

General JAMB Cut‑Off Mark

The University of Ilorin has set its minimum JAMB UTME cut‑off mark for the 2026/2027 session at 180 and above.

This means:

• You must score 180 or more in your 2026 UTME to be eligible to register for UNILORIN’s Post‑UTME screening exercise.

• Scoring below 180 may disqualify you from proceeding with the admission process at UNILORIN.

⚠️ Note: Meeting the minimum UTME cut‑off mark does not guarantee admission — competitive courses often require much higher scores.

UNILORIN Departmental Cut‑Off Marks (2026/2027)

Each course at UNILORIN has its own cut‑off mark depending on competitiveness and demand. Below are some of the departmental cut‑off marks for the 2026/2027 academic session:

Important Admission Notes

• General UTME score (minimum 180) qualifies you for the Post‑UTME screening, but your final admission depends on performance in Post‑UTME and O’Level results as well.

• Competitive programmes like Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, and some Engineering courses often require higher UTME scores than the general minimum.

• UNILORIN does not accept second‑choice candidates — you must have chosen the university as your first choice in JAMB.

How Cut‑Off Marks Work at UNILORIN

1. JAMB UTME score (minimum 180) qualifies you for Post‑UTME.
