    Hello,
    Is the medical students’ (MBBS students’) campus located at Ede?… because, I learnt, in the information provided above that the “Faculties in the College of Health Sciences” and the “Pharmacy Faculty’s Campus” is in Ede.
    I’m asking because I’m a prospective student of OAU.

    Thank you so much for the information.
    Good evening sir/ma

    God Bless you.

      Hello Ayodele, Welcome to PrepsNG Scholars…

      The Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) for medical students, including those studying for an MBBS, is located in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria1. The university’s main campus is situated in an urban area spanning over 2,020 hectares. There is no indication that the medical students’ campus is located at Ede. Instead, it is part of the larger university campus in Ile-Ife. Thank You

      As a direct entry candidate, I’d advice you budget at least ₦200,000 for tuition and other necessary charges, including acceptance fees.

      Good evening! Congratulations on your JAMB score of 251. While OAU’s Medicine cut-off is usually 250+, admission also depends heavily on your post-UTME performance. Aim for a high post-UTME score (70%+) to boost your chances, as OAU combines both scores (50% each) for admission. Prepare well, and best of luck! Let us know if you need guidance on post-UTME prep.
