Westland University, located in Iwo, Osun State, has released its official cut‑off mark for the 2025/2026 academic session.
As a private university, it adopts a unified entrance requirement and does not set department‑specific thresholds.
What is Westland University’s general JAMB UTME cut‑off mark for 2025?
For the current admission cycle, Westland University has set its UTME cut‑off mark at 160.
This means any candidate who scores 160 or higher in the JAMB UTME, and lists the university as either their first or second choice, qualifies for screening.
Is the same 160 score required for all courses?
Yes. Unlike federal institutions that often have higher requirements for certain programs, Westland University applies the same 160 UTME cut‑off to all courses.
Whether you’re applying for Mass Communication, Computer Science, Accounting, or Biology, the entry threshold remains at 160.
Can someone with a 150 score in UTME apply to Westland University?
No. A UTME score below 160 means you are not eligible to apply.
The university strictly enforces this minimum, so candidates scoring 159 or less cannot register for the screening exercise, regardless of their O’Level qualifications.
Is Post‑UTME screening required and how does it work?
Yes. All eligible candidates (UTME ≥ 160 who chose the university) are required to complete Post‑UTME screening.
While Westland does not conduct a written test like many public universities, applicants must:
- Submit their JAMB and O’Level results on the university portal
- Pay a non‑refundable application fee
- Possibly attend an interview or documentation verification session on campus
Admissions are finalised following this screening.
What subjects are needed for key degree programs?
Westland follows JAMB’s requirements as stated in the Brochure. Candidates should register for subject combinations relevant to their course, such as:
- Sciences & Engineering: English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or Biology
- Mass Communication and Social Sciences: English, Mathematics, Government/Economics, and a third arts subject
- Computer Science: English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or Economics
Choosing the wrong combination may result in disqualification during screening.
What O’Level results are required?
Successful admission requires credit passes in at least 5 subjects from WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB, including:
- All courses: English Language and Mathematics
- Science-related programs: Physics, Chemistry, and Biology
- Arts/Social Science courses: Government, Literature, CRS, Economics, etc.
These credits must be obtained in no more than two sittings and appropriately match your chosen program.
Does listing Westland University as a second choice matter?
No. Whether Westland is your first or second choice, as long as you scored 160 or more, you are eligible for screening.
However, you must update your choice on the JAMB CAPS portal before screening closes.
Does meeting the 160 cut‑off guarantee admission?
No. Scoring 160 is only the minimum requirement to begin screening. Admission depends on:
- Quality of O’Level results
- Accuracy of subject combinations
- Availability of space in your program
- Strength of your overall application during screening, including possible interviews
Candidates is selected based on their merit ranking among all eligible applicants.
