Thomas Adewumi University (TAU) has released the approved minimum admissible cut off marks for undergraduate admission for the 2026/2027 academic session. If you applied to TAU through UTME, Direct Entry, IJMB or JUPEB, this is the point where you stop guessing and confirm whether your score matches your chosen course.

The university’s cut off marks are not the same across all programmes. While many courses remain at the general benchmark of 150, competitive programmes such as Law, Nursing and Medicine require higher scores or additional admission conditions. Checking this list early can save you time and help you decide the next step in your application.

Think of this as your admission checklist before opening the application portal.

What Are the TAU Cut Off Marks for 2026/2027?

TAU approved these general requirements:

  • General courses - 150

  • Law - 200

  • MBBS - 200

  • Nursing Science 0 - 180

Direct Entry, IJMB and JUPEB applicants should also check the PTS column because point requirements differ by programme.
