Important Considerations
- Aggregate Score Calculation: To calculate your aggregate score, DELSU uses a formula that combines your JAMB score and Post UTME score. Typically, your JAMB score is divided by 8, and your Post UTME score is divided by 2. The sum of these two values gives your aggregate score, which is then compared against the departmental cut-off marks.
- Eligibility for Post UTME: Candidates who meet or exceed the JAMB cut-off mark of 170 are eligible to apply for DELSU’s Post UTME screening. It is essential to perform well in this screening to enhance your chances of admission.
