FUTO Post-UTME Screening Date and Test Format

Here’s the detail that catches many candidates off guard: FUTO does not run a written Post-UTME exam. The 2026/2027 screening exercise is based entirely on:

Your verified JAMB UTME score.
Your O’Level results, uploaded to JAMB CAPS no later than Monday, 17 August 2026.
Your departmental requirements, matched against your course choice.

There is no test date to prepare for once you submit your registration and your O’Level results are correctly uploaded, FUTO calculates your standing directly from these verified records. Failure to upload your O’Level results by the deadline will negatively affect your aggregate score, so don’t treat this step as optional or secondary to registration.

FUTO Post-UTME Past Questions: Do You Need Them?

Since there’s no written exam, traditional “past questions” practice has no direct relevance to FUTO’s screening process. That said:

Your time is far better spent double-checking your O’Level grades and JAMB subject combination match FUTO’s requirements for your specific course, since this not test performance determines your aggregate.
Be skeptical of any vendor advertising “FUTO Post-UTME past questions” there’s no written test for such material to prepare you for.

FUTO Post-UTME Cut-Off Mark and Aggregate Score Formula

FUTO’s cut-off marks are tiered by course competitiveness, not a single flat number:

150 — general minimum for most programmes (e.g., Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Statistics, Agricultural Engineering, Environmental Health Science).
170 — Engineering, Computing, and Health Technology courses.
200 — Medicine and Surgery (MBBS), FUTO’s most competitive programme.

How the aggregate is calculated: since there’s no Post-UTME test, FUTO combines your JAMB score with a converted O’Level grade-point score, rather than a Post-UTME score. The general method:

Your JAMB score is converted into a score component (commonly scaled toward a 50-point maximum, similar to other Nigerian universities’ JAMB÷8 style conversions).
Each of your O’Level subject grades is converted into points (for example, A1 = 100, B2 = 90, B3 = 80, and so on, scaled down based on your number of sittings).
The four relevant O’Level subjects’ point values are added together and scaled into the second half of your aggregate.
Both components are added together for your final aggregate, out of 100.

[VERIFY the exact scaling/conversion table directly from FUTO’s official admission guidelines before relying on a specific calculation] the grade-point conversion varies depending on whether you used one or two O’Level sittings, and FUTO’s official documentation has the authoritative scale.

Important exception: FUTO accepts a combination of two O’Level sittings for all courses except Medicine and Surgery, which strictly requires one sitting only.
