DELSU 2026/2027 cut-off marks at a glance
The university set a mark for every course on the list. The lowest is 40 and the highest is 77.3, for Clinical Medicine (MBBS). The marks come from DELSU's own bulletin of 10 September 2026, and every figure on this page is copied from it.
For the live version, use our DELSU cut-off mark page. This post lists the whole bulletin by faculty so you can find your course in one place.
How to read these marks
Each mark is the approved UTME cut-off for the 2026/2027 admission exercise. The bulletin prints it under the heading "Approved cut-off marks for UTME 2026/2027".
If your UTME score is at or above the mark for your course, you are eligible to be considered. That is all it means. It does not guarantee admission.
DELSU's bulletin does not give a Post-UTME score or weighting, so we do not guess one here. Our DELSU Post-UTME page covers the screening.

Courses at 40
Most programmes sit at 40, and the rest are higher. The whole of the Faculty of Education, the Faculty of Agriculture and the Faculty of Environmental Science are at 40.
A mark of 40 is the minimum UTME score. Admission also depends on the steps that follow it.
What to do next
- Find your course in the table and note its mark.
- Compare it with your UTME score. If you are below it, look at another course in your faculty before you spend money on screening.
- Open our DELSU cut-off mark page to see the current figures, because that page is the one we keep up to date.
- Read the DELSU Post-UTME page for the next stage.
Frequently asked questions

Which DELSU course has the highest cut-off mark?
Clinical Medicine (MBBS), at 77.3. Nursing Science follows at 71.2, then Law at 70.5.
Is the cut-off mark the same as the admission mark?
No. The cut-off is the minimum UTME score that makes you eligible to be considered. Admission also depends on the steps after it, so meeting the mark does not guarantee a place.
Where can I see the current cut-off marks?
On our DELSU cut-off mark page. This post follows the bulletin of 10 September 2026.
