Understanding the LASUSTECH Cut-Off Mark
When students ask me about LASUSTECH, one of the first questions is always: “What’s the cut-off mark?” This isn’t just a number—it’s your gateway to one of the fastest-growing state universities in Nigeria. The Lagos State University of Science and Technology (LASUSTECH) sets cut-off marks each year to screen eligible candidates.
These marks help the university manage the thousands of applicants competing for limited slots across faculties. If you don’t meet the minimum JAMB score, you won’t be allowed to sit for the Post-UTME—period.
2025/2026 LASUSTECH JAMB Cut-Off Mark
For 2025/2026, LASUSTECH has set a general JAMB cut-off mark of 180. This means if you scored below 180, you’re not eligible for Post-UTME. However, this is just the minimum benchmark. Competitive courses require far higher scores.
“When I applied for Computer Engineering, I thought 190 was okay—until I saw the departmental cut-off was 240. That shook me,” — Emmanuel O., current 200L student.
Here’s a breakdown:
| Category | Cut-Off Mark (2025) |
|---|---|
| General JAMB Cut-Off | 180 |
| Engineering Courses | 220–250 |
| Science & Technology | 190–220 |
| Management Sciences | 180–210 |
| Agriculture & Bio-Science | 180–200 |
Departmental Cut-Off Marks by Faculty

How LASUSTECH Calculates Admission Chances
LASUSTECH uses a combination of your JAMB score and Post-UTME score to create a composite score.
“The trick is to aim for a very high JAMB score to offset any Post-UTME mistakes,” explains Mrs. Odukoya, an admission officer I met during the LASUSTECH Open Day event.
Composite Score Formula
(JAMB Score / 8) + (Post-UTME Score / 2) = Composite Score
Example: If you score 240 in JAMB and 70 in Post-UTME:
- JAMB: 240 / 8 = 30
- Post-UTME: 70 / 2 = 35
- Total = 65
This score is then compared to the departmental benchmark.
My Personal Experience With LASUSTECH Admissions
I remember being glued to my phone the night before Post-UTME registration closed. I had 245 in JAMB and was applying for Computer Science.
“I barely had N3,000 left for the form and had to walk 4km to a cafĂ© with internet access,” I shared in one of my WhatsApp groups.
It wasn’t just about academics—it was survival. My advice? Be mentally and logistically prepared.
Tips to Boost Your Admission Chances
