The UNILORIN departmental cut off mark is the final minimum score expected from a candidate to get admission into his/her course of choice at the University of Ilorin.
This is purely based on the department or course involved. The UNILORIN courses and cut off mark for admission is not static and its influenced by the following;
General Performance:
General performance among candidates aspiring for that course in both the SSCE, JAMB and Post UTME: The better the performance, the higher the department’s admission cut off mark. The final admission cut off mark is derived from the following;
WAEC/NECO/NABTEB GPA (grade points from the relevant O’level subjects).
Average between the JAMB score and the post utme screening score.
Admission Quota
2. Admission quota for the department:
Each department has admission quotas allocated by the Nigerian University Commission (NUC). For example, if the admission quota for Medicine and Surgery is 100, the department will not accept any more candidates for admission after the slot is exhausted no matter the candidate’s score. in this case, the university admits candidates based on merit hierarchy (from the best candidate down to where the quota becomes exhausted). Let me just believe you understand me here.
Catchment Area:
The University of Ilorin, just like any other federal university in Nigeria favours candidates who are from the university’s catchment areas.
Based on the Nigerian educational system, a catchment area is simply the state you’re closest to your university either by geopolitical location or tribe. Say, for example, the University of Ilorin, Kwara State, and states within this region (Kwara States) are classified under the UNILORIN catchment area which will be listed below.
There are currently 5 states classified under the University of Ilorin catchment area for candidates seeking admission into this great institution. As said earlier, your admission into UNILORIN is much easier when you are from any of the above states of origin. These are;
Benue State
Kebbi State
Kogi State
Kwara State
Nasarawa State
Plateau State
Sokoto State
Zamfara State
