AAUA Departmental Cut-Off Marks

While the university has not officially published departmental cut-offs for 2025/2026 at the time of writing, based on previous trends and competitiveness, here’s an estimate of what you can expect across faculties:

Admission Requirements at AAUA

To be eligible for admission into AAUA, candidates must meet the following criteria:

JAMB UTME Score

• A minimum score of 160 in the 2025 UTME.

O’Level Results

• Candidates must possess at least five (5) credit passes, including English Language and Mathematics, in not more than two sittings.

Correct Subject Combination

• Your UTME subject combination must match the requirements for your chosen course.

Post-UTME Screening

• All eligible candidates must participate in the AAUA Post-UTME screening exercise, which includes an online application and score computation.

How AAUA Calculates Admission Aggregate Score

AAUA typically uses a 50:50 ratio for JAMB and Post-UTME scores.

Formula:

Aggregate Score = (UTME Score ÷ 8) + (Post-UTME Score ÷ 2)

Example:

• JAMB Score = 200

• Post-UTME Score = 60

• Aggregate = (200 ÷ 8) + (60 ÷ 2) = 25 + 30 = 55

This final score is then compared to the departmental benchmark for your course.

Once the university announces the Post-UTME form, follow these steps:

1. Visit the AAUA admissions portal.

2. Create an account using your JAMB registration number.
