The Senate and central admissions board of Umaru Musa Yar’Adua University (UMYU), Katsina State, have officially approved and published the institutional departmental cut-off marks for the 2026/2027 academic session. These foundational point cut-offs serve as the automated baseline filters used by the university’s screening portal to evaluate, sort, and match prospective candidate folders to their preferred degree options.
UMYU utilizes a structural merit metric system that strictly weighs a candidate’s 2026 JAMB UTME score against faculty capacities. Meeting the minimum point baseline is the primary requirement needed to unlock secondary documentation processing on the university portal and secure an admission slot on JAMB CAPS.
Faculty Breakdown of Approved Cut-Off Marks
To simplify your profile assessment, the university’s central registry has classified the entry scores across individual faculty blocks:
1. Faculty of Clinical Sciences (High-Tier Healthcare tracks)
Because these programs are highly competitive with rigid seat quotas, they enforce the highest entry baselines in the university:
- Medicine and Surgery (MBBS): 220 and above
- Nursing Science: 200 and above
- Medical Laboratory Science (MLS): 190 and above
2. Faculty of Law
- LL.B. Common and Islamic Law: 190 and above
3. Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences
- Computer Science / Information Technology: 170 and above
- Microbiology / Biochemistry: 165 and above
- Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics: 150 and above
4. Faculty of Social and Management Sciences
- Accounting / Business Administration: 160 and above
- Economics / Political Science / Sociology: 150 and above
5. Faculty of Education & Faculty of Humanities
- All Education Tracks (B.Sc. Ed / B.A. Ed): 150 and above
- English Language, History, Arabic, and Islamic Studies: 150 and above
Statutory Admission Prerequisites for UMYU Aspirants
Clearing the departmental numbers is the first phase. Your overall application folder must also align perfectly with these institutional parameters:
- The First Choice Mandate: The UMYU screening interface only processes candidate profiles that hold Umaru Musa Yar’Adua University as their First Choice Institution on JAMB CAPS. If you picked another school initially, you must visit an accredited CBT center to update your preferences.
- O’Level Compilation Rule: Candidates must possess a minimum of five (5) credit passes in relevant high school subject blocks (WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB) including English Language and Mathematics, obtained in not more than two (2) sittings.
- JAMB CAPS Sync: Ensure your O’Level certificates are uploaded directly to the central JAMB portal. Under current university guidelines, profiles that show empty O’Level grids on the national portal during selection iterations will be instantly skipped.
