Cutoff Mark for Criminology in UNILORIN

Hello, dear reader! If you’re considering pursuing a degree in Criminology and Security Studies at the University of Ilorin (UNILORIN), you’re making an excellent choice. UNILORIN is one of Nigeria’s most prestigious universities, and its Criminology program is designed to provide students with a robust understanding of criminal justice, security, and social order.

In this article, I’ll share the cutoff mark for Criminology in UNILORIN, along with additional insights to help you plan your admission journey.

What Is the Cutoff Mark for Criminology in UNILORIN?

The departmental cutoff mark for Criminology and Security Studies at UNILORIN is 180. This means that you need to score 180 or higher in your UTME (JAMB) to be eligible for consideration during the admission process.

Understanding the Admission Process

UNILORIN uses a quota system and catchment areas to allocate admissions. Here’s how it works:

  • Quota System: Preference may be given to students who meet the required mark and fall within specific categories (e.g., merit, educationally less-developed states).
  • Catchment Area: If you’re from states in UNILORIN’s catchment area, you may have an edge, provided you meet the cutoff.

Tips for Meeting the Cutoff Mark

To secure admission, achieving the minimum mark isn’t always enough. Higher scores improve your chances, especially when competing for competitive courses like Criminology. Here are my tips:

  • Aim for a score well above 180 to stand out.
  • Prepare thoroughly for the Post-UTME, as it can significantly boost your aggregate score.
  • Research and meet additional requirements for your preferred course.

How to Calculate UNILORIN Cut Off Mark (Aggregate Score)

Many students keep asking “what is the right calculation for total aggregate at UNILORIN?” Let me explain it clearly here.

UNILORIN uses both your JAMB score and Post UTME score to determine your aggregate.

The Aggregate Formula:

(UTME Score ÷ 8) + (Post UTME Score ÷ 2) = Total Aggregate Score

Let’s break it down with an example:

  • JAMB Score: 280
  • Post UTME Score: 70

Now calculate:

  • UTME: 280 ÷ 8 = 35
  • Post UTME: 70 ÷ 2 = 35
  • Total Aggregate = 35 + 35 = 70

That means your aggregate score is 70. Each department has its own benchmark, and the higher your aggregate, the better your chances.

The general JAMB cut off mark for the University of Ilorin is 180. However, competitive courses like Medicine, Law, Nursing, Pharmacy, Engineering, and Mass Communication require higher JAMB scores of 220 and above.
