What is the UNIDEL cut off mark for 2026/2027?
The University of Delta, Agbor (UNIDEL) has set its general JAMB cut off mark at 160 for the 2026/2027 academic session. This means all candidates who wish to participate in the UNIDEL Post-UTME screening and be considered for admission must score at least 160 in their UTME.
Departmental Cut Off Marks
While 160 is the minimum required to apply, some courses—especially competitive ones like Medicine, Law, and Engineering—may have higher departmental cut off marks. For many courses in Education, Sciences, Management, and Social Sciences, the cut off remains at 150–160.
However, applicants are strongly advised to check the official UNIDEL website or admission office for the specific cut off mark of their intended course after the release of JAMB results, as these can vary based on demand and departmental quotas.
