Delta State University JAMB cut off mark for all courses that are offered in the institution has been released by the school authority in accordance with JAMB’s directive. Before the management and school authority of DELSU fix their minimum cut off mark, it has to be in line with that of JAMB’s approved cut off mark for the academic session. JAMB does not fix DELSU cut off mark, JAMB in the last meeting with all VC’s of universities and Rectors of polytechnics came to a conclusion that the 2025/2026 cut off mark be determined by the various institutions.
This academic session, JAMB has directed all schools to fix their cut off mark for the 2025/2026 academic session. DELSU has now changed their cut off mark to 150 from previous 170. The cut off mark for DELSU is 150. This simply means that candidates that register DELSU as their preferred choice of institution must have scored at least 150 and above to be eligible to purchase DELSU post UTME form and apply for admission into their selected course. JAMB’s duty is to regulate and give admission to deserving candidates who meet DELSU cut off mark and passed the post UTME test.
Oftentimes candidates seeking admission are confused as to what is the best JAMB score for their course which results to questions like?
I got 160 in JAMB, can i be admitted into DELSU?
What score must i get to study Electrical and Electronic Engineering in DELSU?
What is DELSU cut off mark for 2025/2026 academic session
Sometimes candidates who scored 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 220 and above ask if they are eligible to study Computer science, Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy or any of the courses offered in DELSU. Please note that with the courses and cut off mark available here today, you will know if you are qualified for admission into DELSU. I will be listing the approved DELSU course and minimum JAMB cut off mark you are supposed to score to be eligible for post UTME at the Delta State University.
In your search for admission, please note that choosing DELSU as your 1st choice of institution in your UTME registration is the first step to gaining admission because the school would give consideration to candidates that selected DELSU as their first choice of institution before considering other choices if need be.
Again, candidates with higher JAMB score are at advantage of gaining admission into DELSU even though all candidates who score 160 and above are given equal opportunities to sit for the post UTME because after calculating their aggregate score or weighted average, candidates with higher JAMB scores tend to score higher because of their UTME scores gives an edge when calculating their average cut off mark over candidates with low UTME scores. So, it is advised you try as much as possible to score high in your JAMB and Post UTME to give you a better chance of studying your preferred course.
With the above information at your disposal, I can assure you that you will gain admission into DELSU with ease. Most candidates fail to acknowledge the fact that a low JAMB score decreases their chances except candidates who are listed among the Educationally Less Developed States.
DELSU cut off mark is quite modest, that is, it is easy to score up to 150 in your JAMB unlike other Federal schools with the same standard as DELSU who still have their minimum cut off mark higher that DELSU’S.
Below I have listed all courses offered in DELSU as well as DELSU JAMB cut off mark in a tabular format for proper understanding by both first-time candidates and candidates who have attempted JAMB in the past.
