Additional Information for Candidates
These cut-off marks serve as the minimum JAMB score requirements for each programme. However, meeting the cut-off mark does not automatically guarantee admission, as the final selection will also depend on performance in the Post-UTME screening, availability of spaces, and merit list ranking.
Post-UTME and Admission Process
UMYU usually announces its Post-UTME screening form shortly after the release of the JAMB results. Interested candidates should regularly check the university’s official website for registration details, payment methods, and examination schedules.
Tips for Securing Admission into UMYU
- Score above the cut-off mark to increase your chances.
- Prepare adequately for the Post-UTME screening.
- Ensure your O’Level results meet the subject requirements for your chosen course.
- Apply early once the Post-UTME form is released.
