Note: The Above departmental Cut-Off Marks 2024/2025 are for reference purposes and don’t represent the Institution’s current Cut-Off Marks, Universities cut off Marks sometimes usually change or won’t be officially published, so do well to always check the University of Benin (UNIBEN) official website for more information and updates for the current cut off Marks and admission requirements. So, this means that you can still gain admission even if your Average Score is below or above this cut-off mark here, but I will advise your score meets or exceeds the cut-off for your desired course to improve your chances of gaining admission.

How to calculate UNIBEN post UTME aggregate score

To calculate your UNIBEN aggregate score, simply add half of your post-UTME score to one-eighth of your JAMB score. For example, if Campus Informant scores 290 in JAMB and 80 in Post-UTME, his aggregate score would be calculated as follows:

• Post-UTME score divided by 2: 70/2 = 35%
• JAMB score divided by 8: 250/8 = 31.25%

So, his final aggregate score would be 35% + 31.25% = 66.25%. This score is what UNIBEN will use to determine his admission eligibility. Therefore, when you check the UNIBEN departmental cut-off marks, you’ll see percentages like 70%, 90%, 80%, etc., which represent the required aggregate scores for various courses.

How UNIBEN’s Screening Score is Determined

Several factors influence the final cut-off marks:

1. The number of applicants for each course

2. Available admission slots in each department

3. Performance in both the JAMB and UNIBEN Post-UTME screenings

Additional Information

• If your JAMB score is below 200, you cannot participate in the UNIBEN Post-UTME screening.
• Meeting both JAMB and departmental cut-off marks is essential, but additional requirements must also be met for admission.
• Competitive courses like Law, Medicine, and Pharmacy generally have higher cut-off marks.
• You are advised to visit the UNIBEN official website for current updates if you choose the institution as your first choice.
