What Is DELSU Post UTME Screening?

DELSU’s Post UTME is an online screening exercise — not a written aptitude test. The university does not conduct a separate CBT examination for UTME candidates. Instead, admission is determined by an aggregate score calculated from your JAMB result and O’Level grades using a 50:50 ratio:

(JAMB Score ÷ 8) + (Post UTME Score ÷ 2) = Aggregate

Both your JAMB score and O’Level performance carry weight. Ensure your O’Level results are correctly uploaded on JAMB CAPS before applying.

The general JAMB cut-off mark for DELSU is 150. Scoring 150 qualifies you to apply — but it does not guarantee admission. Each department has its own aggregate cut-off mark, and competitive courses require significantly higher scores.

How DELSU Calculates Aggregate Score

DELSU uses a 50:50 ratio between JAMB and Post UTME scores:

Advertisements
  • Divide your JAMB score by 8
  • Divide your Post UTME score by 2
  • Add both results to get your aggregate

Example: JAMB score of 240 + Post UTME score of 70 → (240 ÷ 8) + (70 ÷ 2) = 30 + 35 = Aggregate of 65

The aggregate is then compared against the departmental cut-off mark for your chosen course.


Most Competitive Courses at DELSU

Certain programmes attract far more applicants than available spaces, making the cut-off marks significantly higher in practice:

Advertisements
  • Medicine and Surgery — among the most competitive; aim well above 250
  • Law — consistently high demand; 240 and above gives a stronger chance
  • Nursing Science — in high demand due to healthcare sector growth
  • Pharmacy and Petroleum Engineering — strong competition each year
  • Engineering programmes generally — Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, Electrical all require 220+

If your JAMB score is below the cut-off for your preferred course, consider applying to a less competitive department within the same faculty — and request a change of course after admission if eligible.


Important Notes for All Applicants

  • O’Level results must be on JAMB CAPS before you can be considered for admission. Do not wait — upload as soon as results are available.
  • Candidates awaiting results can apply now, but must upload immediately results are released.
  • Ensure the phone number and email address you register with are active — DELSU uses these to send screening details.
  • Do not share your login details with anyone or pay third parties to apply on your behalf.
  • Any inconsistency in your documents (name, date of birth, state of origin) can affect your admission consideration.
