The 2026/2027 cut-off mark picture for FUGUS is now out. Candidates need this information before they can tell whether they are in contention for a place, and before any screening exercise starts.
Candidates who are still unsure where they stand should treat FUGUS’s figure as the starting point for everything else in the admission process. Nothing else in the admission process matters until this threshold is settled.
FUGUS 2026/2027 JAMB Cut-off Mark
JAMB’s 2026 policy meeting set the national floor for universities at 150 for 2026/2027.
FUGUS’s own reported Post-UTME screening threshold is 160, which is the figure cited most consistently across sources and matches what this page has used before, though we’ve also seen 150 and 180 cited elsewhere, so take it as a strong estimate rather than a freshly confirmed figure.
We couldn’t reach fugus.edu.ng directly to pull a current confirmation.
Candidates should have made Federal University, Gusau, their first choice in UTME, and need at least 5 credit passes in one sitting in the relevant O’Level subjects, including Mathematics and English.
FUGUS Departmental Cut-off Mark
FUGUS hasn’t published a fresh departmental cut-off list for 2026/2027 that we could independently verify.
Reported patterns from recent cycles suggest competitive courses sit well above the general threshold, Computer Science and Biochemistry around 190, Nursing Science around 210, and Medicine and Surgery around 240, but we’d treat these as the pattern to expect rather than confirmed 2026/2027 figures.
Check directly with FUGUS admissions for your specific department once the current cycle’s list is out.
Only candidates who meet the screening threshold and chose Federal University, Gusau, as their first choice are qualified for the Post-UTME screening exercise.

Clearing FUGUS’s Mark Is Only Step One
Clearing FUGUS‘s cut-off mark is the entry requirement, not the finish line. Candidates still need to complete every other step in the admission process to secure a place.
That is true no matter how comfortably a candidate clears the mark. FUGUS candidates should keep that in mind while the rest of the admission process plays out.
