The full gist
Notice is hereby given that the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) screening exercise will hold for candidates who chose Osun State University as their first choice or those willing to change their institution and make UNIOSUN their first choice, who have a minimum score of 160 marks. However, candidates who scored less than 200 marks would not be considered for admission into any of the underlisted programmes: Law, Nursing, Medicine, and Islamic Law. Meanwhile candidates who chose any of the above mentioned courses but scored less than the prescribed marks can change to any other relevant programme of their choice.
