EKSU has released its official cut-off mark for the 2026/2027 admission session, fixed at 160. Candidates who put the school down on JAMB need to clear that figure before anything else on their admission checklist.
Applicants who aspire to get admitted into Ekiti State University must meet certain criteria in order to study the course of their choice. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
Among the list of criteria includes meeting the required cut-off mark for the school as well as the course or department itself. It is worth double-checking this detail directly against the official portal before relying on it.

EKSU’s cut-off mark is 160 to qualify for admission in 2026/2027 for all courses, and EKSU accepts and screens only first-choice candidates in their Post UTME. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
Once you have met the requirement for the cut-off mark, you can proceed to the rest admission requirements into the desired course. Skipping or rushing this part of the process is one of the more common reasons admission gets delayed.
Ekiti State University (EKSU) is a state-owned university in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria. The university has remained one of the most competitive in the country in terms of admissions.
EKSU has one of the largest student populations of any university in the country. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle. None of this changes depending on how strong the rest of a candidate’s application looks.
