Medicine and Surgery leads with a minimum score of 220, while Nursing Science requires 200. All programmes mandate five O'Level credits, including English Language and Mathematics, consistent with JAMB guidelines.
Programme-Specific Cut-Off Marks and Durations
According to the university's admissions page, the MBBS in Medicine and Surgery has the highest threshold at 220 and spans six years. Nursing Science follows at 200 with a five-year duration, requiring Biology, Chemistry, and Physics as UTME subjects. Physiotherapy and Public Health are set at 180, with Physiotherapy running five years under the Faculty of Medical Rehabilitation and Public Health four years under Allied Health Sciences.
Several programmes share a 170 minimum, including Occupational Therapy, Speech-Language Therapy, Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Environmental Health Sciences, Medical Physics, and Biotechnology. Speech-Language Therapy accepts Physics or Mathematics as an alternative to Physics. Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Environmental Health Sciences, Medical Physics, and Biotechnology offer Mathematics as an alternative to Biology or Physics, depending on the course.
O'Level Requirements and Subject Combinations
All candidates must hold five O'Level credit passes, including English Language and Mathematics. For the MBBS programme, these credits must be obtained at one sitting. Applicants for all other programmes may present results from not more than two sittings. Medical Physics, under the Faculty of Science, specifically requires Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, with no Biology option. Biotechnology accepts Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or Mathematics.
Health science programmes requiring Biology, Chemistry, and Physics as core UTME subjects fall under the faculties of Allied Health Sciences, Medical Rehabilitation, or Basic Clinical and Clinical Sciences. The full admission requirements for the 2026/2027 session are available on the FUMHSF admissions page.
Related University Cut-Off Announcements
In a related development, the University of Ibadan released its 2026/2027 cut-off marks for Data Science and Software Engineering. Additionally, FUOYE published its cut-off marks for Law, Pharmacy, and Medicine and Surgery for the same session. Prospective students who sat the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination must meet these benchmarks before admission consideration. The varying score requirements reflect differing levels of competition and academic demand across programmes.
