Official List of Courses Offered in Osun State University (UNIOSUN) for 2026/2027

Official List of Courses Offered in Osun State University (UNIOSUN): If you have chosen Osun State University (UNIOSUN), you are targeting one of the fastest-growing and most stable state universities in Nigeria.

However, applying to UNIOSUN is different from applying to other schools like OAU or UNILAG because of its unique Multi-Campus System. The university is not located in one town; it is scattered across six different towns in Osun State.

NOTE: Before you browse the list, you must understand the “Campus Logic” to avoid renting a hostel in the wrong city!

1. The “Medical” Boom: UNIOSUN now has a fully accredited College of Medicine. They offer Medicine and Surgery, Nursing Science, and Medical Laboratory Science.

2. No Pharmacy Yet: Do not confuse “Pharmacology” (which UNIOSUN offers) with “Pharmacy” (B.Pharm). As of the 2026/2027 session, UNIOSUN does NOT offer a professional Pharmacy degree to become a pharmacist.

3. The “Ifetedo” Rule: If you want to study Law, you will be at the Ifetedo Campus, which is quite far from the main campus in Osogbo.

Important Admission Secrets for 2026/2027

To secure admission into UNIOSUN, you need to navigate their specific “rules”:

1. The “Osun First” Policy

• UNIOSUN is owned by the Osun State Government.

• Osun Indigenes: You get a massive advantage. The admission quota favors indigenes significantly.

• Non-Indigenes: You are welcome, but you must aim for the Merit List. If the cut-off for Medicine is 70% for an Osun indigene, it might be 75% for a non-indigene.

2. The “No Awaiting Result” Preference

• UNIOSUN is very fast with its calendar. They often prioritize candidates who already have their O’Level results (WAEC/NECO) ready during the screening registration. Using “Awaiting Result” can be risky if your result is not released before the admission list is compiled.

3. The Cut-Off Mark Reality

• General Cut-Off: UNIOSUN typically sets a university minimum of 160.

• Real Targets:

  • Medicine/Nursing/Law: 230 – 250+ is the safety zone.

  • Cyber Security/Software Engineering: 200+.

  • Accounting/Pol Science: 180+.

  • Agriculture/Education: 160 is usually sufficient.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does UNIOSUN offer Pharmacy? No. As of the 2026/2027 session, they offer Pharmacology, not Pharmacy. If you want to be a Pharmacist, do not choose UNIOSUN.
