OAU Cut-off Mark 2026/2027 | JAMB & Post-UTME

OAU has confirmed 180 as its cut-off mark for 2026/2027 admissions. That is the baseline JAMB uses to screen candidates who selected the institution, and it applies before any departmental requirement.

The new cut-off mark is for all 2026/2027 Joint Admission and Matriculation  Board (JAMB) Applicants who sat for the just-concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.

OAU JAMB Fixed Cut-off Mark

JAMB fixed cut-off mark for OAU is 180.

You might wonder, I had 180 and above but was not still given admission to study my desired course.

Candidates with the highest scores are first considered for admission. Meanwhile, candidates with lower scores though they might meet the cut-off mark of 180, may likely not be admitted. The higher your scores, the greater the chance of being admitted.

OAU Departmental Cut-off Mark

The Obafemi Awolowo University does not really have a specific cut-off mark for courses. However, candidates who have scored a minimum of 180 in the UME examination are eligible to apply for admission into any course of their choice.

OAU Nature of Admission Screening

The Obafemi Awolowo University holds its admission screening exercises within a week or a couple of weeks, which come in two phases. Students who apply to the school are to go ahead with the pre-screening exercise when once it is released.

Documents required for the pre-screening exercise are SSCE results and JAMB registration printout only.

It is often important that a candidate arrive early to locate his/her screening venue early. Candidates will be screened on the JAMB scores and their SSCE result.

The second phase of the screening is after admission lists have been released. Applicants who merited admission will be invited for another screening exercise. Here are all documents such as;

• Originals of their educational documents (statements of results/certificates).
  N/B: Pending results cases will NOT be accepted.
• Birth certificate/Declaration of age.
• A letter of good conduct from your village leader or your responsible member, Municipal/or civil servants not below grade 10 or equivalent in the private sector.
• Certificate of Local Government of origin; and this notification of admission status
