About FULAFIA

Established in 2010 by the Goodluck Jonathan administration, FULAFIA stands as one of the nine novel federal universities inaugurated across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria. Proudly rooted in Lafia, the heart of Nasarawa State, this institution has quickly cemented its reputation for academic excellence and is a sought-after choice for many students across the country.



The All-Important Cut-Off Marks

The management team of FULAFIA has decreed that the cut-off mark for this year’s admission exercise will act as a yardstick for selection. Here’s the breakdown:
General Admission Requirements:O’ Level Standards: Candidates must possess relevant O’ Level results, procured in no more than two attempts or sittings.
JAMB UTME Score: The baseline score is set at 170. However, for certain courses, there’s a slightly elevated requisite:Human Anatomy and Physiology: 200
Nursing and Radiography: 210
Medical Laboratory Science (MLS): 220
Medicine and Surgery (MBBS): 230
Preferred Choice: Prospective students must have earmarked the Federal University of Lafia as their topmost choice during the JAMB registration process.

Meeting these criteria, especially the specified JAMB UTME score, is paramount. A score that aligns with or surpasses the designated cut-off ensures a candidate’s consideration during the post-UTME screening exercise. On the contrary, falling short of this threshold means automatic disqualification from FULAFIA’s screening process.
