With a score of 180, you have met the general eligibility mark for Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA), but securing Criminology and Security Studies will require some careful planning.

While the minimum eligibility is 160, the merit cut-off mark for Criminology and Security Studies is typically around 200.
​At 180: You are "eligible" to apply and participate in the screening, but you are currently below the historical merit threshold.
​The Catch: AAUA uses an online screening process (no physical exam). Your admission depends on your Aggregate Score, which is a combination of your JAMB score and your O’Level (WAEC/NECO) results.
If you have several A1s and B2s in your core subjects (English, Maths, Economics, Government, etc.), your aggregate might climb high enough to beat the competition.
​Important Requirements
​O'Level: You must have at least 5 credits, including English Language, Mathematics, and Economics.
​First Choice: You must have chosen (or change to) AAUA as your first choice institution on the JAMB portal.
​Alternative Course: If your aggregate ends up being too low for Criminology, AAUA may offer you a related course like Sociology (which usually has a lower cut-off, around 170).
Go ahead and register for the AAUA online screening as soon as the portal opens. If your O'Level results are very strong, you still have a fighting chance for Criminology!
