Out of the courses listed above, some are competitive why some are easy to be offered admission to study. For you to know those courses, there is a need for me to discuss the cut off mark for the courses.

UNN Cut off Mark

UNN cut off mark depends majorly on the decision of the school management. The minimum mark for the school is 180 for all courses. However, if you want to study one of the most competitive course at UNN, I will advise you to aim at scoring 240 and above in your UTME.

O’level result

You must have a minimum of five O’level credit passes at one sitting. For you to be on a safe side, you must atleast have C4 in relevant subjects which must include English Language and Mathematics.

Lastly, passing Post-UTME excellently will make you dream come through after satifying other requirements. And that dream is to gain admission into UNN,
