Many students struggle to calculate their aggregate score and cut-off mark because it varies by institution.
This article will explain what aggregate and post-UTME scores mean and what factors should be considered before calculating the aggregate score.
What Is Post UTME Score
After every UTME exercise, the exam body sets a particular mark {e.g., 120}. This mark is a score a candidate must have or cross to qualify him or her to sit for the chosen school’s POST UTME exercise.
This mark is announced to all schools to enable them to decide the number of candidates they will admit.
After the school’s decision, they announce a particular mark that must not be lower than the mark the UTME body fixed.
Any candidate who crosses the mark set by the UTME body and does not reach the chosen school’s mark is never eligible to sit for the school’s POST UTME.
This mark or score set by the school admission board is known as School’s Cut-off Mark.
How to Calculate UNIOSUN Aggregate Score

UNIOSUN Nature of Admission Screening
The Osun State University holds her admission screening exercises within a week or a couple of weeks, and it usually comes in two phases.
Students who apply to study in the school are to proceed with the pre-screening exercise when once it is announced.
Documents required for the pre-screening exercise are SSCE results and the JAMB registration printout.
It is often important that a candidate arrive early and locate his/her screening venue early. Candidates will be screened on the JAMB scores and their SSCE results.
Second Phase of Screening
The second phase of the screening is after the admission lists might have been released. Candidates who have merited admission will be invited for another screening exercise. Here are all documents such as;
- Original copies of their educational qualifications (Statements of Results/Certificates).
N/B: Cases of awaiting results will NOT be accepted. - Birth Certification/Age Declaration.
- A letter of good conduct from your Village Head or a responsible member of your
