Classical results of Rohlin, Dold, Wall and Atiyah yield two exact sequences that connect the oriented and unoriented (abstract) cobordism groups $\Omega_n$ and $\mathfrak{ N}_n$. In this paper we present analogous exact sequences connecting the oriented and unoriented cobordism groups of maps with prescribed singularities. This gives positive answer to a fifteen-year-old question posed by Sz\H{ u}cs and has interesting consequences even in the case of cobordisms of immersions.
