If you’re planning to apply to Bingham University for the 2025/2026 academic session, this article is for you.
The management of Bingham University has officially released the cut-off mark for the upcoming admission process.
This guide explains what the cut-off mark means, the departmental cut-off marks, and what you need to do if you meet or do not meet the required score.
What is the Bingham University cut-off mark for 2025?
The general cut-off mark for Bingham University for the 2025/2026 academic session is 160.
This means that candidates who scored 160 or above in their JAMB UTME are qualified to apply for admission into Bingham University.
This is the minimum score you need to be considered for the Post-UTME screening exercise.
Note that this does not guarantee admission, but it gives you a chance to apply.
Is 160 the departmental cut-off for all courses in Bingham University?
No, 160 is just the general cut-off mark. Each department has its own cut-off mark, depending on how competitive the course is.
Here is a breakdown of some of the departmental cut-off marks for 2025:
- Medicine and Surgery: 200 and above
- Law: 200 and above
- Nursing: 180 and above
- Medical Laboratory Science: 180 and above
- Accounting: 170 and above
- Mass Communication: 170 and above
- Computer Science: 170 and above
- Political Science: 160 and above
- Economics: 160 and above
These are the expected scores you should meet if you want to apply for any of these courses.
If your score is below the departmental cut-off, your chances of getting admitted into that course are low, but you may be considered for another course.
Can I still apply to Bingham University if I scored below 160?
No, you cannot apply for admission into Bingham University if your JAMB score is less than 160.
The university has clearly stated that 160 is the minimum score needed to be eligible for the Post-UTME screening.
If you scored below 160, you should consider the following options:
- Apply for a change of institution to a school with a lower cut-off mark.
- Wait and register for the next JAMB exam to improve your score.
How does Bingham University calculate admission chances?
Bingham University uses both your JAMB score and your Post-UTME performance to decide who gets admitted.
Some departments may also look at your O’level results. Here’s how it generally works:
- JAMB Score: 50%
- Post-UTME Score: 30%
- O’Level Results: 20%
These scores are combined to give a final admission score. Candidates with higher total scores have better chances of getting admitted.
Does Bingham University accept second choice candidates?
No, Bingham University does not accept second choice applications. You must choose Bingham University as your first choice in JAMB to be considered for admission.
If you selected it as a second choice, you will need to do a JAMB change of institution.
