LASU Cut Off Mark for All Courses 2026/2027 Released

LASU Cut Off Mark for All Courses and aggregate points 2026/2027 has been released. See the official cut-off mark, admission requirements, eligibility, and how to calculate your LASU aggregate score.

Last Updated: 6 August 2026

Important: LASU’s officially published general JAMB cut-off mark is 195, and this is the minimum required to be eligible for Post-UTME screening across all courses. However, in practice, competitive courses often require candidates to score well above this minimum to be considered. LASU has not released official course-by-course JAMB or aggregate cut-off marks for 2026/2027. The JAMB and aggregate figures below are estimated based on previous year trend and each course’s admission competitiveness level, not confirmed figures from LASU. Use them only as a rough guide, and always confirm current requirements on LASU’s official admission portal.

LASU Cut Off Mark 2026/2027 at a Glance

General cut-off mark: 195
Eligible for Post-UTME: Yes (195 and above)
First-choice institution required: Yes
Admission guaranteed? No
Final admission depends on: Aggregate score and course competition

LASU Cut off mark for all courses (2026/2027)

The table above shows the official LASU cut off mark for all courses and aggregate score for undergraduate admission, together with the estimated level of admission competition for each course.

⚠️ Disclaimer:
LASU has not released official departmental cut-off marks for individual courses. The competitiveness ratings below are based on historical admission trends and the popularity of each programme. Final admission depends on your aggregate score and the number of available spaces.

💡 Tip: If you’re applying for competitive courses such as Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Law, Radiography, Medical Laboratory Science, Computer Science or Mass Communication, aim for a strong UTME score and a high LASU aggregate score. Meeting the minimum JAMB cut-off mark of 195 alone is usually not enough for admission into these programmes. The general LASU cut off mark serves as the minimum UTME requirement for candidates seeking admission into any course at the university. However, meeting it only qualifies a candidate to take part in the admission process—it does not guarantee a place. Final admission depends on the candidate’s aggregate score and the level of competition for their chosen course.

General LASU Cut Off Mark vs. Admission Cut-Off

These two terms are often confused by students. The general LASU cut off mark (195) is the minimum UTME score needed to be eligible to apply. The admission cut-off refers to the aggregate score ultimately required for admission into a particular course. The aggregate is calculated using LASU’s admission criteria for that session.

Since LASU admits candidates based on aggregate score rather than UTME score alone, use our LASU Aggregate Score Calculator to estimate your aggregate and assess your admission chances.

A candidate can meet the general cut-off and still miss out on a competitive course if their aggregate is lower than other applicants’. Admission offers are usually made in order of merit, beginning with candidates who have the strongest aggregates for each course. This is why two candidates with the same UTME score may have different admission outcomes if their overall aggregates differ.

Why Some Courses Are More Competitive

Courses such as Medicine and Surgery, Nursing, Pharmacy, Law, and Computer Science generally require higher admission aggregates than the general LASU cut off mark. These programmes receive thousands of applications every year while available admission spaces remain limited. As a result, successful candidates usually have significantly higher aggregate scores than the general cut-off mark.

The exact aggregate needed for each department can change yearly, depending on the number of applicants, admission quota, and LASU’s admission policy for that session. Check the LASU Admission Requirements page for your department’s current requirements rather than relying on figures from a previous year.

Beware of Unofficial LASU Departmental Cut Off Marks

Every admission year, many websites publish departmental cut-off marks before LASU releases any official admission statistics. Candidates should be careful when relying on these figures. While previous admission trends can provide a guide, the actual aggregate required for admission depends on competition, available spaces, and the university’s admission policy for the current session.

Common Questions

Can I gain admission with 195?

Possibly—but it depends on your course. For less competitive courses, 195 combined with a solid aggregate may be enough. For high-demand courses, you’ll likely need a much stronger aggregate score to be considered.

What if I scored 200 or higher?

A higher UTME score generally improves your aggregate, which strengthens your chances. But your final aggregate—not your raw UTME score alone—determines whether you’re offered admission.

Can LASU admit candidates below 195?

No. Candidates who score below the approved JAMB cut-off mark are generally not eligible to apply for LASU Post-UTME, unless the university officially announces a different requirement for that admission cycle.

What if I chose LASU as my second choice?

LASU requires candidates to choose the university as their first-choice institution before they can participate in the Post-UTME screening, unless the university announces otherwise for that admission cycle.

💡 Admission Tip:
Scoring 195 only makes you eligible to apply for LASU Post-UTME. Admission is based on your aggregate score, so candidates with stronger aggregates have better chances of receiving admission offers.

Other Admission Requirements

Beyond the LASU cut-off mark, candidates are generally expected to:

Choose LASU as their first-choice institution in JAMB.
Have at least five O’Level credit passes, including English Language and Mathematics, in not more than two sittings.
Meet the university’s minimum age requirement.
Participate in the LASU Post-UTME Form screening exercise if invited.
Achieve a competitive aggregate score for their chosen course.

Candidates must also satisfy any additional requirements announced by LASU for the 2026/2027 admission exercise before admission can be offered.

⚠️ Important:
Always rely on information published by LASU here. Avoid making admission decisions based on unofficial departmental cut-off marks circulating on social media or blogs without credible sources.

Next Steps

Meeting the LASU cut-off mark of 195 only makes you eligible to participate in the admission process. To know how competitive your application really is, calculate your aggregate score and compare it with previous admission trends for your chosen course.
