What is IMSU Cut-Off Mark?

IMSU cut-off mark is the minimum score candidates need in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to be eligible for IMSU’s Post UTME screening. The university management sets the cut-off mark based on JAMB scores and the availability of admission slots.

There are two types of cut-off marks:

1. General Cut-Off Mark: The minimum score all candidates must attain in JAMB.
2. Departmental Cut-Off Mark: The specific score required for admission into individual departments.

IMSU General Cut-Off Mark 2025/2026

For the 2025/2026 academic session, IMSU’s general cut-off mark is 150. If you score 150 or above, you are eligible to apply for IMSU’s Post UTME. However, meeting the general cut-off mark does not guarantee admission. Other factors like departmental cut-off marks and Post UTME scores are equally important.

How to Calculate IMSU Aggregate Score

IMSU uses an aggregate score system to rank candidates for admission. Here’s how you can calculate your aggregate score:

1. Divide your UTME score by 8.
2. Divide your Post UTME score by 2.
3. Add the two results together.

For example, if you scored 300 in UTME and 80 in Post UTME, your aggregate score will be:

• UTME: 300 ÷ 8 = 37.5
• Post UTME: 80 ÷ 2 = 40
• Aggregate score: 37.5 + 40 = 77.5

The higher your aggregate score, the better your chances of gaining admission.
