Is KWASU Post UTME Out — What Is the Screening Format?
KWASU has released the admission form. This is not another test. It is just a screening. KWASU will look at your JAMB score and your O'level results. You do not need to write a new exam.
Admission is based on 70% UTME/DE score and 30% O'level grades.
This is the most important thing to understand about KWASU's post UTME — there is no written CBT examination. KWASU's screening is entirely score and credential-based. Your JAMB score carries 70% of the weight in your admission aggregate and your five O'Level grades make up the remaining 30%. The better your JAMB score and the stronger your O'Level results, the better your aggregate and your admission chances.
What Is the Cut Off Mark for KWASU Post UTME?
Candidates must have a minimum score of 160 in JAMB to be eligible for admission.
Offer of Admission will be based on an aggregate of UTME/DE score 70% and five relevant O'level grades 30%.
The 140 minimum is the general eligibility floor. Competitive programmes at KWASU — Law, Computer Science, Nursing where applicable, and Engineering — attract higher effective aggregate scores because of the volume of applications relative to available spaces. The confirmed departmental cut off marks for the 2026/2027 session are published on the official KWASU website at kwasu.edu.ng during the active registration window.
What Is the Date for Post UTME Screening at KWASU?

After completing online registration, candidates are invited for the physical screening at the KWASU International Conference Centre in Sango. Bring your original UTME result slip, O'Level results with scratch cards, and your KWASU pre-admission screening registration printout on screening day.

The supplementary list at KWASU typically accepts candidates who meet the cut off but were not captured in the main lists due to quota constraints.
KWASU Admission Requirements for 2026/2027
Candidates whose first choice of institution is KWASU Malete. Candidates who wish to choose KWASU as their first choice must change their choice of institution to KWASU on the JAMB Portal before the Pre-Admission Screening Registration. Any wrong entries will automatically disqualify a candidate.
Candidates who didn't select KWASU initially can still apply if they apply for a change of institution before the deadline. Candidates awaiting results may apply, but admission depends on final O'Level results. For MBBS applicants, all credits must be in a single sitting.
