📌 What the UNILAG Cut-Off Means
The merit figure is the published benchmark for candidates considered under the general merit category.
Catchment figures apply to eligible candidates from the listed catchment states.
Meeting a published cut-off does not by itself guarantee admission. Admission also depends on the university's selection process, programme requirements and available spaces.
🧮 Check Your Aggregate Score
Candidates can use the CampusAI Admission Aggregate Calculator to calculate their aggregate score where the relevant institution's formula is supported.
