Aside from meeting the required cut-off marks, candidates must also satisfy the O’Level admission requirements. This means applicants are expected to have written WAEC, NECO, or GCE and obtained at least five (5) credit passes, including English Language and Mathematics, as well as other relevant subjects related to their chosen course. These results are typically accepted in not more than two sittings. However, highly competitive programmes such as Medicine and Surgery may require candidates to present their O’Level results in one sitting.

If you have confirmed that you meet both the cut-off mark and the O’Level requirements, you can proceed to the official Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto (UDUSOK) admission portal to apply for the 2026/2027 Post-UTME screening form. Candidates are also encouraged to share this information with others who may be interested, and feel free to ask any questions in the comment section if you need further clarification.
