What Is the TASUED Cut-Off Mark?
The TASUED cut-off mark is the minimum UTME score a candidate must obtain to qualify for the university’s admission screening process. Candidates who score below the approved cut-off mark are not eligible to participate in the screening exercise.
Meeting the cut-off mark only makes a candidate eligible for screening. It does not automatically guarantee admission.
TASUED Cut-Off Mark for 2026/2027 (Current Benchmark)
Based on the most recent admission screening cycle, the minimum UTME score accepted by TASUED is 160.
For 2026/2027 admission planning, candidates are strongly advised to target 160 and above. Some courses require higher scores due to competition and departmental capacity.

How TASUED Determines Its Cut-Off Marks
TASUED determines its cut-off marks using several factors. These include the number of applicants for each course, available admission quota per department, UTME scores of candidates, performance during the screening exercise, and the university’s admission policy. These considerations help ensure fairness, quality control, and balanced admission.
What Happens After Meeting the Cut-Off Mark
Candidates who meet the cut-off mark must still register for the screening exercise, meet O-Level subject requirements, and perform well during screening. Final admission decisions are based on overall performance, not UTME score alone.
Important Notes for 2026/2027 Candidates
Candidates are advised to aim above the minimum cut-off mark. Competitive courses require higher aggregate scores. Correct O-Level subject combinations are compulsory, and early preparation improves admission chances.
