How to Calculate Your DELSU Aggregate

DELSU has changed their admission process  for the 2025/2026 academic session. Previous they used JAMB score (60%) and WAEC/NECO & GCE (40%) but now its JAMB score(70%) and WAEC/NECO (30%). This means no more Post UTME examinations, so you would save your self the stressed of travelling to Delta State, Abraka precisely to write the exams. Note: Your JAMB  score now covers 70% of your admission and the WAEC/NECO 30%.

Step 1 – Calculate Your JAMB Component

Your JAMB score contributes 70% to your total aggregate using this formula: (Your JAMB Score ÷ 400) × 70. To calculate this, divide your JAMB score by 400, then multiply the result by 70. For example, if you scored 200 in JAMB: 250 ÷ 400 = 0.625, then 0.625 × 70 = 43.75. Your JAMB aggregate is 43.75 out of 70 possible points.

JAMB Score	Aggregate Points
400	70.00
350	61.25
300	52.50
250	43.75
200	35.00

Step 2 – Calculate Your O’Level Component

Your O’Level results contribute 30% to your aggregate based on a points system for grade

WAEC/NECO/GCE Points Breakdown

Grade	Points
A1	6
B2	5
B3	4
C4	3
C5	2
C6	1

The calculation uses five subjects: your four core JAMB subjects (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, English) plus one additional relevant subject like Further Mathematics or Economics. Simply add up the points for these five subjects to get your O’Level component, with a maximum of 30 points possible.

JAMB Calculation: 200 ÷ 400 = 0.625, then 0.625 × 70 = 43.75 points

O’Level Calculation: A1 (6) + B2 (5) + C4 (3) + C5 (2) + C6 (1) = 17 points

Final Aggregate: 43.75 + 17 = 60.75 out of 100
