Atiba University Cut Off Mark 2026/2027

If you are aiming for Atiba University for the 2026/2027 academic session, you are choosing a university located in Oyo Town, Oyo State.

Atiba University JAMB Cut Off Mark for All Courses

The school management has officially set the Atiba University JAMB cut-off mark for the 2026/2027 academic session at 140.

Important Reality Check:

• The 140 Benchmark: This is the minimum score required to access the application portal. If you scored 140 and above, you are eligible to register for screening for most courses in the Faculties of Arts, Social & Management Sciences, and Natural & Applied Sciences.

• The “Professional” Exception: Do not be deceived; while 140 makes you eligible to apply to the university, it does not guarantee admission into high-demand courses like Nursing Science, Law, or Medical Laboratory Science (MLS). These courses are the “hot cakes” of the university. To be safe, you generally need a score of 180 to 200+ to stand a realistic chance on the merit list, as these departments have strict quota limits regulated by professional bodies.

• First Choice Policy: Atiba University is very welcoming. You do not need to have chosen them as your First Choice initially. You can apply first, and then do a Change of Institution on JAMB CAPS later to regularize your admission.
