The primary determinant for admission at the University of Uyo is the cut off mark. There are not just numbers; it is what decides if you will be on campus on the resumption date of the university, or if you will be trying the admission process over again.
For the 2025/2026 academic session, UNIUYO's minimum cut off mark is 150, which gives candidates access to the Post UTME screening exercise of the university. After this process, those who meet the departmental aggregate cut off marks are offered provisional admission.
