Thomas Adewumi University cut-off mark is out for all courses

by

Thomas Adewumi University (TAU), located in Oko-Irese, Kwara State, is a private institution that offers a range of academic programs across several faculties including Health Sciences, Engineering, Social Sciences, Computing, Management, and Law.

The university has now released its official cut-off mark for the 2025/2026 academic session.

What is the official JAMB cut-off mark for Thomas Adewumi University in 2025?

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has approved 160 as the official UTME cut-off mark for Thomas Adewumi University for the 2025/2026 admission cycle.

This means that any student who scored 160 or more in the JAMB UTME is qualified to apply for admission into any undergraduate course offered by the university.

If your score is below 160, you will not be eligible for admission, regardless of your O’Level results.

Is the cut-off mark the same for all courses at TAU?

Yes. Unlike federal universities that often have different cut-off marks for different programs, Thomas Adewumi University uses one general cut-off mark of 160 for all its courses.

Whether you are applying for Nursing, Law, Computer Science, Medical Laboratory Science, Mechanical Engineering, or Accounting, you must have scored at least 160 in JAMB.

Does meeting the 160 cut-off mark guarantee admission?

No, it does not. Scoring 160 only makes you eligible to participate in TAU’s admission screening process.

Your final admission depends on other factors such as your O’Level grades, the subject combination used in JAMB, and your overall performance during the screening.

This means that meeting the cut-off is just the first step.

However, candidates are invited for a screening exercise, where your JAMB score, O’Level results, and personal details are reviewed. You may also be asked to come for an oral interview or documentation check.

How does TAU decide who gets admitted?

Admission into TAU is based on three main factors:

  1. JAMB score (must be 160 or above)

  2. Correct subject combination in UTME and O’Level

  3. Availability of space in your chosen programme

Candidates who meet all the requirements and submit their application early are given the best chance. 

The university operates a first-come, first-served policy in many cases, especially for competitive courses like Nursing, Computer Science, and Law.
