Yes, you can use a 177 JAMB score to apply for admission to the University of Uyo (UNIUYO), as it is above the general eligibility cut-off mark of 150.
​However, whether you will actually get in depends entirely on the course you want to study.
​The Reality of a 177 Score at UNIUYO
​While you are eligible to register for the online screening, UNIUYO is highly competitive. Here is how your score stacks up across different departments:
​Low Chance (Professional Courses): You will not be able to get into Nursing, Pharmacy, Law, or any Engineering course with a 177. These courses typically require scores above 230–250 to be competitive.
​Fair Chance (Education and Agriculture): You have a decent chance in the Faculty of Education (e.g., Health Education, Adult Education) or the Faculty of Agriculture, provided your O'Level results (WAEC/NECO) are very strong.
​Possible (Some Arts/Sciences): Courses like Religious Studies, Botany, or some less-subscribed languages might be within reach.
​How to Maximize Your 177 Score
​Since UNIUYO uses an online screening (no physical exam), your O'Level grades are your only way to "boost" this score.
​Strong O'Levels: If you have many A's and B's in your core subjects, your aggregate score will increase, making your 177 more competitive.
​Course Realism: If you originally chose a highly competitive course (like Computer Science or Accounting), I strongly recommend doing a JAMB Change of Course to a less competitive one (like a related Education course) to avoid losing the admission year.
​Upload Results: Ensure your O'Level results are uploaded correctly on the JAMB CAPS portal.
