Think of the AEFUNAI Cutoff mark as the "entry ticket" you need to get into the university. If your JAMB score doesn’t reach the number the school is asking for, you won't be allowed to buy the screening form or even be considered for admission.

Outrightly, the approved cutoff mark to take part in the Post screening exercise set by JAMB and AEFUNAI is 150, but scoring 150 does not guarantee you admission. Again, if you applied for a very competitive course like Medicine, Law, Nursing, Radiography, etc., you need to achieve a certain high score to guarantee your admission.

How To Calculate AEFUNAI Aggregate Score

The aggregate score of a student's performance comprises both JAMB and the Post UTME scores. The two work hand in hand to determine if you meet the standard of your aspiring department. Below is how the calculation is done.

  • Divide your JAMB Score by 8

  • Divide your Post UTME score by 4

  • Add both your JAMB and Post UTME scores together

  • Your final score is your aggregate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Can I be moved to another department if I don't meet the cutoff mark of the department I applied for?
A. There is a high chance of being moved to another department if you pursue a change of course to a department you met the cut-off and purchased the supplementary admission form.

Q. Is there any possibility of buying my admission if I don't meet the cutoff mark?
A. Sorry, Alex Ekwueme Federal University, Ndufu Alike, gives out admission solely on merit.

Q. Does being an indigene of the state give me an advantage over non indigines if I don't meet the cutoff mark?
A. This is a Federal university; everyone is equal, and there is no distinction between indigenes and non indigenes.

Q. Is the cutoff mark the same for every year?
A. Not necessarily, it changes based on the overall performance of students in JAMB and the number of applicants for that year.

Q. Can I enter Pharmacy with 150?
A. No, professional health science courses generally require a minimum of 180–200.

Q. Does AEFUNAI use "catchment area" cutoffs?
A. As a Federal University, they follow Federal Character guidelines, but the merit cut-off is usually the same for everyone.
