AUO JAMB cut-off mark 2026/2027

Two different numbers matter. The national minimum is fixed by JAMB at its annual policy meeting with vice-chancellors, rectors and provosts — for universities it is currently 150. The institutional cut-off is AUO’s own threshold; a university may adopt the national minimum or raise it, but can never go below it.

AUO last published a general cut-off of 180. Treat that as a floor for planning: unless you are above it, you cannot be screened for any course.

Reality check: meeting the cut-off only qualifies you for screening. Admission is decided on your UTME score, O’Level grades, post-UTME/screening score and (for some schools) catchment and ELDS quotas. Aim at least 20–40 marks above the departmental figure for your course.

How AUO uses your cut-off: UTME, O’Level and screening

Score at least the AUO general cut-off in UTME 2026 with the correct subject combination for your course.
Upload your O’Level results to your JAMB profile (how to upload O'Level results); five relevant credits (including English and, for most courses, Mathematics) in not more than two sittings is the standard.
Buy and sit the AUO post-UTME/screening when the form is released (see the post-UTME screening guide). JAMB caps the screening charge at ₦2,000 with no hidden add-ons; in practice several universities (UI, LAUTECH, UNIOSUN, AAUA, FUNAAB) charge a separate ₦3,000 ‘portal access’ fee, so budget ₦2,000–₦5,000.
Watch JAMB CAPS for your offer; accept it promptly and print your admission letter.

Verify before you pay or act: Cut-off figures above are the last published marks compiled for AUO. Institutions announced their 2026/2027 marks after the 11 May 2026 policy meeting, usually inside the post-UTME/screening advert. The only authoritative source for AUO is atibauniversity.edu.ng and the school’s official notice boards. If a figure here differs from what the school publishes, the school is right.

Frequently asked questions

What is the AUO cut-off mark for 2026/2027?

The national minimum for universities is 150. AUO’s own general cut-off was last published as 180. Competitive courses require significantly more.

Is 150 enough to get into AUO?

Only if AUO adopts the national minimum and your course is not competitive. For popular courses you should target at least 200; for Medicine, Law, Pharmacy or Nursing, 250 and above.

Does AUO accept 140 or below?

No. No university may admit below JAMB’s national minimum of 150 for universities. If you scored below it, consider the JAMB CAPS Marketplace or a different institution type with a lower minimum.

Is the departmental cut-off the same as the JAMB cut-off?

No. The JAMB (general) cut-off is the minimum to be considered at all. The departmental cut-off is the higher score a specific course actually requires after merit ranking and screening.

When does AUO release its cut-off mark each year?

Within weeks of the JAMB policy meeting (held 11 May 2026 for 2026/2027), usually inside the post-UTME/screening advert. For the 2027/2028 session expect it between May and July 2027.
