In short

In JAMB's figures for the 2026 UTME, 58,895 candidates chose UI as their first choice, the 4th highest number of any school in Nigeria.
JAMB's lowest mark for any university in 2026/2027 is 150. A school or a course can ask for more, never less. See the JAMB cut-off marks.

Departmental cut-off marks

At UI, a course can have more than one cut-off mark. Find your course, then read the column that applies to you.

Merit places are given on scores alone, to candidates from any state.
Catchment places are kept for candidates from the states around the school. They apply to you only if your state of origin is one of them.
ELDS places are kept for candidates from Educationally Less Developed States, a group of states named by the federal government.

These are aggregate scores worked out by the school. The school does not say what they are out of.

For example: Law, Nursing

A dash means the school gave no mark for that course in that column. If the table is wider than your screen, slide it sideways to see every column.
