LAUTECH Cut-Off Marks for 2026/2027 Academic Session

The official LAUTECH cut-off marks for the 2026/2027 academic session have finally been released by the university management.

 Departmental benchmarks start from a baseline of 170, but highly competitive courses naturally require much higher scores. For instance, Mass Communication is set at 230, Nursing requires a minimum of 250, and Medicine holds the highest threshold at a steep 300.

It is critical to remember that meeting these LAUTECH cut-off marks simply grants you basic eligibility and does not guarantee automatic admission, meaning you are still required to register and excel in the upcoming Post-UTME screening. 

Continue reading for a full breakdown of the departmental requirements and your next essential steps in the admission process.

What are the LAUTECH cut-off marks for each course?

Candidates are to check their preferred course carefully, because each department has its own required mark and a candidate who meets the general expectation may still need to meet the mark fixed for the chosen programme.

Which LAUTECH courses have the highest cut off marks?

Medicine has the highest listed cut off mark at 300, while Nursing has 250 and Medical Laboratory Science has 235.

Mass Communication also has a high departmental mark at 230. Candidates applying for these courses should treat the figures as the minimum entry point for screening, since admission is still subject to the full process used by the university.

Which LAUTECH courses start from 170?

Several courses have 170 as their listed cut off mark, including Agricultural Economics, Agricultural Extension and Rural Development, Agricultural Engineering, Building, Estate Management, Fine and Applied Arts, History, Marketing, Statistics, Transport Management, Urban and Regional Planning and Wildlife and Ecotourism Management.

The figure means that candidates for those courses may proceed to the next admission step once other stated requirements are also met.

What should candidates do after meeting the LAUTECH cut off mark?

A candidate who meets the required departmental mark should move to the LAUTECH admission process without delay, because meeting the cut off mark alone is not automatic admission.

The next steps are:

• Visit the LAUTECH admission portal through the LAUTECH admissions page
• Register for the LAUTECH Post-UTME screening
• Prepare the required documents, including O’level results, birth certificate and JAMB slip
• Prepare for the Post-UTME screening, because the exercise forms part of the admission process

Candidates who want to compare admission marks across other schools may also check the cut off marks for other universities, polytechnics and colleges.

Does meeting the LAUTECH cut off mark guarantee admission?

Meeting the stated mark does not guarantee admission. It gives a candidate the right to proceed with the next stage where applicable, but the final admission outcome will still depend on the process set by the university.

Candidates are advised to check the chosen course, confirm the exact mark and complete Post-UTME registration within the period provided by the university.

What documents should be kept ready for LAUTECH Post-UTME?

Candidates should keep the basic admission documents ready before registration, so that errors and late submission problems can be avoided.

The listed documents are:

• O’level results
• Birth certificate
• JAMB slip

Each detail on these documents should agree with the information used for JAMB and LAUTECH admission registration.

What is the best next step for a candidate below the mark?

A candidate below the stated mark for the preferred course should review the course list again and consider the next available admission option, since the listed departmental mark is the screening threshold for that programme.

The course score should be checked before any further admission decision is made.
