Mass Communication (200) and Medicine & Surgery (230) have the highest cut-off marks for the 2026/2027 admission exercise, while most Arts, Education, Physical Science, and Agriculture programmes require the general benchmark of 170.
However, meeting the required FULafia cut off mark for all courses only qualifies you to apply for the Post-UTME screening exercise—it does not guarantee admission. Candidates must also satisfy the university’s O’Level requirements, choose FULafia as their first-choice institution, and complete the online screening registration before the deadline.

FULafia in Context: Other Nasarawa State and Federal Universities
FULafia shares Nasarawa State with the state-owned Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK), whose 2025/2026 general benchmark and departmental structure is covered in our post on the Nasarawa State University (NSUK) cut off mark.
Candidates comparing FULafia with other federal universities of similar standing may also find it useful to check the Modibbo Adama University (MAU) cut off mark for 2026/2027, the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) cut off mark for 2026/2027, and the ATBU cut-off mark for 2026 admission, all of which follow a similar general-benchmark-plus-departmental-premium structure, with Medicine and health-related courses commanding the highest scores.
For a sense of what screening itself typically involves beyond the score, our guides on ATBU screening requirements, FUAHSE screening requirements, and FUMMSA screening requirements walk through the online and physical clearance steps that most federal universities, FULafia included, tend to mirror. Candidates also weighing options in the federal college of education system may find our post on the Tai Solarin Federal University of Education (TASFUED) cut off mark useful for comparison, alongside our broader explainer on JAMB cut-off marks for all courses in 2026.
