Thomas Adewumi University Cut-Off Marks for 2026/2027 Admission

Thomas Adewumi University (TAU) has released the approved minimum admissible cut-off marks for undergraduate programmes for the 2026/2027 academic session. Candidates who selected TAU as first choice in the 2026 UTME can check the score or point requirement for each course below.

The list covers UTME candidates and Direct Entry, IJMB, and JUPEB candidates. Each candidate should match the chosen course with the correct admission route.

What Are the TAU Cut-Off Marks for 2026/2027?

TAU sets 150 as the UTME cut-off mark for most undergraduate courses, while MBBS and Law require 200 and Nursing Science requires 180. Direct Entry, IJMB, and JUPEB point requirements differ by course.

The approved marks apply to candidates seeking admission into Thomas Adewumi University for the 2026/2027 academic session.

What Do Cut-Off Mark and PTS Mean?

Term	Meaning
Cut-Off Mark	Minimum UTME (JAMB) score required for admission
PTS	Minimum Direct Entry (DE), IJMB, or JUPEB points required for admission into 200 Level

These two columns help candidates check the correct requirement for their admission route. UTME candidates should focus on the cut-off mark, while DE, IJMB, and JUPEB candidates should check the PTS column.

How Should Candidates Read the TAU Admission Table?

Candidates should check the table with care because each course has its own entry requirement. A candidate applying for Law, for example, should not use the requirement for Accounting or English and Literary Studies.

Find the faculty or college.
Check the exact programme name.
Compare the UTME score with the listed cut-off mark.
For DE, IJMB, or JUPEB, compare the points with the PTS requirement.
Candidates who meet the listed requirement can proceed through the TAU admission online guide.

Which TAU Courses Have the Highest UTME Cut-Off Marks?

MBBS and Law have the highest listed UTME cut-off mark at 200. Nursing Science follows with 180.

Can Direct Entry, IJMB, or JUPEB Candidates Use the Same List?

Yes. The PTS column shows the minimum point requirement for Direct Entry, IJMB, and JUPEB candidates seeking admission into 200 Level.

MBBS has no DE, IJMB, or JUPEB requirement stated on the advert. Candidates should treat that course as unstated for that admission route, rather than borrowing the point requirement from another programme.

What Should Candidates Do After Checking the Score?

Candidates who meet the listed minimum requirement for their chosen course can proceed with the TAU online admission process. The course name, admission route, UTME score, and PTS requirement should match before the form is started.

Candidates who do not meet the listed mark for a chosen course should recheck the table before taking the next step. A wrong course match can lead to the wrong admission expectation.
