Avoid the highly competitive screening baseline by targeting these safe score margins.
Safe Range
190 - 240
AUI’s baseline JAMB UTME cut-off mark usually ranges between 140 and 160. However, for highly competitive programs such as Nursing, a minimum score of 170 to 180+ is strictly required for merit admission.
Use of English, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
Five (5) O'Level Credit passes including English Language, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology at not more than two sittings (Note: Highly competitive federal departments frequently enforce a single-sitting rule).
Augustine University utilizes an online application and screening process via its admission portal. Candidates pay the required screening fee and must upload their O'Level results to both the university portal and JAMB CAPS for verification.
Direct Entry candidates must possess a minimum of two (2) A'Level passes in relevant subjects, an NCE, ND, HND, or a good first degree. They must apply through the JAMB DE platform and satisfy standard O'Level requirements.
The single biggest mistake candidates make when applying for Nursing Science at AUI is assuming that hitting the university's baseline general cut-off mark ensures eligibility for the screening process. Nursing operates inside highly restrictive capacity caps mandated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN). If you score below the hard departmental minimum, your portal choice will face immediate drop filters regardless of aggregate score metrics.
