Can someone study Nursing at Fuoye with a Jamb score of 229 if the person is an indigene?

The short answer is yes, it is possible, but it is not a guarantee. At the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE), Nursing is arguably the most competitive course outside of Medicine.
​Here is the direct breakdown of how your 229 score stands:
​The "Indigene" Advantage (ELDS)
​Since the person is an indigene of Ekiti State, they fall under the ELDS (Educationally Less Developed States) or the Catchment Area quota.
​Federal universities reserve about 35% of their admission slots for candidates from their catchment area.
​The cut-off mark for indigenes is usually lower than the "Merit" cut-off. While a non-indigene might need 250+, an indigene might get in with 225–235.
So with a very high Post-UTME score, you get a very good chance of getting it.
