To gain admission into DELSU, prospective students must meet certain criteria, one of which is the cut-off mark. This article will provide a comprehensive overview of DELSU cut-off marks, focusing on both the JAMB and departmental cut-off marks.

DELSU JAMB Cut Off Mark

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is the body responsible for conducting entrance examinations for prospective university students in Nigeria. Each year, JAMB sets a general cut-off mark for universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. For DELSU, the JAMB cut-off mark is the minimum score a candidate must achieve in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to be eligible for the post-UTME screening exercise.

As of the latest academic session, the JAMB cut-off mark for DELSU is 170. This means that any candidate who scores 170 or above in the UTME is eligible to apply for the post-UTME screening at DELSU. However, meeting the JAMB cut-off mark does not guarantee admission, as candidates must also meet the departmental cut-off marks and other admission requirements.

DELSU Departmental Cut Off Marks

While the JAMB cut-off mark sets the baseline for eligibility, the departmental cut-off marks determine the specific scores required for admission into various courses offered at DELSU. These cut-off marks vary across different faculties and departments, reflecting the level of competition and demand for each course.

The departmental cut-off marks are determined by factors such as the number of applicants, the performance of candidates in the post-UTME screening, and the capacity of each department. Generally, competitive courses like Medicine, Law, Pharmacy, and Engineering tend to have higher cut-off marks compared to less competitive courses.

Here are some examples of departmental cut-off marks at DELSU:

Medicine and Surgery: 80 and above in the post-UTME screening.
Law: 75 and above in the post-UTME screening.
Engineering: 70 and above in the post-UTME screening.
Business Administration: 65 and above in the post-UTME screening.
Mass Communication: 65 and above in the post-UTME screening.

It is important to note that these cut-off marks are subject to change each academic session based on the aforementioned factors. Prospective students are advised to check this blog (schoolforvisa.com) regularly or the official DELSU website or contact the admissions office for the most current information.

The Delta State University (DELSU) departmental cut-off mark is a combination of JAMB and Post UTME scores with a 50:50 ratio, known as aggregate score.

Scoring above the cut-off mark for the course you’re applying to study at DELSU is necessary to gain admission. If you don’t meet the required score, you can still go for the change of course to stand a chance for admission.

How To Calculate DELSU Aggregate Score For Admission

The cut-off mark is calculated by dividing your JAMB score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2. Add up the two values to get your aggregate score.

For example, if you’re applying to study Nursing Science with a JAMB score of 283 and Post UTME score of 68,

Parameter	Calculation	Total
JAMB	283 ÷ 8	34.38
Post UTME	68 ÷ 2	34
Aggregate Score	–	68.38

Now, let’s get into the main objective of this post, which is the cut-off mark for every department at DELSU.
