JAMB Said 150. But FUOYE Won't Use 150 — Here Is Every FUOYE Department's Real Cut-Off Range
Yesterday I posted that JAMB's 150 is just the minimum. Today, let's get specific — what cut-off does YOUR FUOYE department actually use? These ranges are based on FUOYE's pattern over the last 3 admission cycles. The actual 2026 number will be confirmed by FUOYE in their screening point announcement, but use these as your realistic target. **HIGH-DEMAND (220 AND ABOVE)** - Medicine and Surgery - Nursing Science - Law - Anatomy - Physiology **ENGINEERING (200 TO 220)** - Software Engineering(180 as 2025/2026) - Computer Engineering - Electrical/Electronics - Civil Engineering - Mechanical Engineering - Agricultural Engineering **SCIENCES (180 TO 200)** - Biochemistry - Microbiology - Computer Science - Industrial Chemistry - Physics with Electronics - Statistics - Software engineering **ARTS & SOCIAL SCIENCES (170 TO 190)** - Mass Communication - Accounting - Economics - Business Administration - English & Literary Studies - International Relations & Diplomacy **EDUCATION & AGRICULTURE (160 TO 175)** - Education courses (most are here) - Agricultural Economics - Crop Science - Animal Production ##NOTE: These are AGGREGATE-friendly cut-offs. FUOYE uses an aggregate of JAMB (50%) + Screening points (50%). Even if your JAMB is mid, a strong Weac or other ssce can save you. So if you scored 175 in JAMB and want Mass Comm (cut-off ~180-185), don't panic — score 75% in Post-UTME and your aggregate will be solid. ##DROP YOUR SCORE AND DESIRED COURSE BELOW. I'll do the aggregate math for you, Use $CAL$.

FUOYE School Fees 2025/2026: New vs Returning Students
Here is the current FUOYE school fees schedule and what to expect when budgeting. APPROXIMATE FEES - New (fresh) students: about N102,000 - Returning students: about N48,000 These figures are paid through the official FUOYE portal and may vary slightly by faculty/department (some programmes with labs or studios charge extra). Always confirm the exact amount shown on your portal invoice before paying. WHAT THE FEE TYPICALLY COVERS - Tuition-related charges (federal universities charge minimal tuition) - Registration, ICT, library, medical and other service charges - Departmental and faculty levies DO NOT FORGET - Acceptance fee is separate and is paid first, once you accept admission on CAPS - Accommodation is separate (off-campus rooms around Oye-Ekiti range widely - use the Tobix accommodation finder) Use the Tobix fees calculator to estimate your total first-year cost (acceptance + school fees + accommodation + feeding).

Scored Below Your Dream School? Here Is Exactly How To Change Institution To FUOYE (2026)
Plenty of you are in my DM asking the same thing: *"Tobix, my UTME is 165, my first choice wants 250. Can I still come to FUOYE?"* Short answer — **Yes.** Long answer — only if you move fast and do it correctly. Let me walk you through it the way I'd walk a younger sibling. ## Who actually needs to do Change of Institution? - You picked UNILAG, UI, OAU, UNN, ABU, etc. as first choice and your UTME score is below their bar. - You did not pick FUOYE at all but now you realise FUOYE has the course you actually want, at a saner cut-off. - You picked FUOYE but the wrong course, and your screening aggregate won't carry that course. - Your first choice already screened you and didn't admit you. If any of these is you, this guide is for you. ## Before you start — confirm you actually qualify Do not pay JAMB N2,500+ for change of institution only to find out FUOYE rejects you on a technicality. Confirm these **first**: - **JAMB UTME score ≥ 160** (the new 2026 national minimum we just got on Monday). - **5 O'Level credits in relevant subjects** in not more than 2 sittings — English and Maths included for most courses. - **Your O'Level subjects match FUOYE's combination** for the new course. (Eg: Software Engineering needs Maths + Physics + any 2 from Chemistry/Biology/Economics/Geography.) - **Run your screening aggregate honestly** before paying. $Cal: Calculate your FUOYE screening points$ — it will tell you in 30 seconds whether you have a real shot or you're wasting N2,500. If your aggregate is below 50/100, don't change to a high-demand course. Pick something realistic. ## Step-by-step: the actual process **Step 1.** Log into your JAMB profile at `portal.jamb.gov.ng` with the email + password you used for UTME registration. If you forgot, do *Forgot Password* — don't go to a cyber cafe to "fix it" for N5k. That's a scam. **Step 2.** On your dashboard, click **Profile → Transactions → Pay for Change of Institution / Course**. JAMB charges roughly **N2,500 – N3,500** for change of institution (the fee changes year to year — check the portal for the live figure). **Step 3.** Pay via Remita, debit card, or bank. **Keep the receipt and reference number.** Screenshot it. Email it to yourself. **Step 4.** Wait 10–30 minutes for the payment to reflect. Refresh your profile. The **Change of Institution** form will now be unlocked. **Step 5.** Fill the form carefully: - New first choice: **Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE)** - New course: the one you actually qualify for based on your screening aggregate (don't be greedy) - Catchment-area indicator: if you're from **Ekiti, Ondo, Osun, Kogi or Kwara**, that ticks for you automatically by state of origin **Step 6.** Submit. Print the slip. Save the PDF. Done on JAMB's side. **Step 7 — the step people forget.** Go straight to FUOYE's screening portal (`fuoye.edu.ng` → Admission → 2026 Screening) and register there too. **Changing on JAMB alone does not put you in FUOYE's system.** You must complete FUOYE's own screening registration after. ## Things that will mess you up - **Don't change to a course you don't qualify for by O'Level.** FUOYE will silently reject you and you'll waste the money. - **Don't change to Medicine, Nursing, Law, Software Engineering, Pharmacy** if your UTME is below 200. The aggregate won't carry it. I've watched too many people cry over this. - **Don't pay any "agent" to do change of institution for you.** It's a self-service portal. You can do it from your phone in 15 minutes. Agents who charge N15k–N20k are running a polite scam. - **Don't change twice.** JAMB allows it, but each one is another payment, and FUOYE only sees your most recent choice. ## Real-talk on which FUOYE courses are realistic to change into - **UTME 160–179:** Education courses, Agriculture courses, History, Religious Studies, some Library Science. Honestly comfortable here. - **UTME 180–199:** Mass Comm, Accounting, Business Admin, Economics, Sociology, Political Science, English. Solid range. - **UTME 200–219:** Computer Science, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Industrial Chemistry, most Engineering departments at Ikole campus. - **UTME 220+:** Now you can dream — Medicine, Nursing, Software Engineering, Law, Pharmacy. (Even then, screening points still decide.) These are *guides* based on the last 3 admission cycles. Senate sets the official bar after screening closes. ## After your change is done - Bookmark [/admission](/admission) — I update FUOYE's official cut-offs there the day Senate releases them. - Get accommodation **before** you see your name on the list. Rooms around Oye go from N250k to N500k in 48 hours once admission drops. [Verified rooms here](/accommodation), no landlord wahala. - Drop your **new UTME aggregate** in the replies below — I'll look at it personally and tell you if your new course choice is sensible. ## FAQs **Q: How long does JAMB take to process the change?** A: Usually instant on the JAMB side. FUOYE adopts new candidates within 24–72 hours. **Q: Can I change my course inside FUOYE without changing institution?** A: Yes — *Change of Course* is a separate, cheaper payment on the same JAMB portal. Same Step 2, just pick Course instead of Institution. **Q: My state is not in FUOYE's catchment. Will I be rejected?** A: No. Catchment helps slightly on aggregate ties — it doesn't disqualify anyone. Plenty of FUOYE students are from outside the 5 catchment states. **Q: Is there a deadline?** A: JAMB usually closes the change window 2–6 weeks after the policy meeting. Don't gamble — do it this week. ## Sources JAMB's official Change of Institution policy on `portal.jamb.gov.ng`, FUOYE's published admission framework, and the **160 national minimum** announced at the 11 May 2026 Policy Meeting (see my breaking post pinned in this thread).
