UNIBADAN: Courses requiring 70 and above
Below is the full list of University of Ibadan programmes that no candidate can access without hitting the 70-point mark in the post-UTME screening exercise.
1. Medicine and Surgery — 80.00
2. Nursing Science — 74.5
3. Software Engineering — 75.375
4. Computer Science — 74.125
5. Dentistry — 72.875
6. Electrical and Electronics Engineering — 71.25
7. Law — 71.00
8. Pharmacy — 70.375
9. Mechanical Engineering — 70.00
What the cut-off marks mean for aspirants
Medicine and Surgery tops the list with a cut-off of 80.00, making it the single most competitive programme on offer at the university. Software Engineering follows at 75.375, with Nursing Science close behind at 74.5.
Computer Science sits at 74.125, while Dentistry requires a minimum of 72.875. Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Law both fall in the 71-point range, at 71.25 and 71.00 respectively. Pharmacy clears the 70-point threshold at 70.375, and Mechanical Engineering completes the list with an exact cut-off of 70.00.
Candidates targeting any of these programmes should note that meeting the UTME benchmark alone is not sufficient. The post-UTME score carries significant weight in the final admission decision, and falling below these figures means a candidate will not be considered for that particular course regardless of their UTME performance.
