DELSU Departmental Cut Off Mark for All Courses 2026
by Blessing Olarewaju
The Delta State University (DELSU) departmental cut-off mark is a combination of JAMB and Post UTME scores with a 50:50 ratio, known as aggregate score.
Scoring above the cut-off mark for the course you’re applying to study at DELSU is necessary to gain admission. If you don’t meet the required score, you can still go for the change of course to stand a chance for admission.
The cut-off mark is calculated by dividing your JAMB score by 8 and your Post UTME score by 2. Add up the two values to get your aggregate score.
For example, if you’re applying to study Nursing Science with a JAMB score of 283 and Post UTME score of 68,
Parameter

Total
JAMB
283 ÷ 8
34.38
Post UTME

Aggregate Score

68.38
Now, let’s get into the main objective of this post, which is the cut-off mark for every department at DELSU.
Let me know in the comment if you have any questions or need further clarification. I would love to hear from you.
For easy navigation, I have broken down the cut-off mark according to each faculty and department in the university.

Conclusion
In conclusion, this blog post has provided a comprehensive overview of the DELSU Departmental Cut-Off Marks for all courses.
It is crucial to note you can still gain admission through the supplementary form if you do not meet the cut-off mark for the course you applied to in the Post UTME.
Let me know in the comment if you have any questions or need assistance or clarifications about the DELSU admission. I am here to assist you and would be glad to hear from you.
My sister got 188 for jamb and now that DELSU no longer do UTME, with her good waec result and this score, does she stand a chance to study nursing in Delsu?
Miracle, supplementary form is for those that did not meet the cut off mark for the course they applied to. They are given the opportunity to apply to courses that can accept students.
A JAMB score of 240 is low for Pharmacy. It is advisable you choose another course. Let me know if you have further questions or need further clarification.
Yes, there is a difference between health and safety education and health education.
While both fields are concerned with promoting well-being, their specific focuses differ:
Health education is primarily concerned with promoting overall physical, mental, and social well-being. It focuses on topics such as nutrition, exercise, disease prevention, and mental health.
Health and safety education is a broader field that encompasses both health and safety aspects. It includes topics from health education but also focuses on preventing accidents, injuries, and hazards in the workplace or community. This might involve topics like fire safety, first aid, and hazard identification.
In essence, health education is a subset of health and safety education. While health education focuses on promoting positive health behaviors, health and safety education takes a more comprehensive approach by addressing both health and safety concerns.
If your aggregate score is not close to the cut-off mark, then you must apply for the DELSU supplementary admission. I don’t mean JAMB Change of Course.

While both fields are concerned with promoting well-being, their specific focuses differ:

Health and safety education is a broader field that encompasses both health and safety aspects.
