Official release from management

The Federal University of Medicine and Medical Sciences, Abeokuta (FUMMSA) has made public the Post UTME cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 admission round. The figures serve as the minimum scores required for merit and catchment categories across different courses.

It is more than just numbers on a sheet, these scores often decide which side of the admission fence a candidate lands on. For some, it is relief, for others, it signals the need to prepare for another attempt.

FUMMSA Post UTME Cut-Off Marks by course

Below are the officially approved cut-off marks:

For candidates, the cut-off is the gatekeeper. Meeting it does not guarantee admission, but falling short almost always closes the door. The advice is simple: check your course, compare your score, and know your standing before the admission process moves ahead.

Students should weigh their own UTME performance against these numbers. Meeting the cut-off keeps you in the race, falling below it, well, that tends to close the door quickly.
