Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board Cut-Off Marks

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the approval of the cut-off marks for admission into tertiary institutions during the last policy meeting on admissions. JAMB and stakeholders in the country’s education sector have pegged the minimum cut-off score for Nigerian universities at 140, polytechnics at 100, and colleges of education at 100.

According to Is-haq Oloyede, the Registrar of JAMB, the minimum benchmark should not be considered as a one-size-fits-all requirement for all institutions. He emphasized that while the meeting determines the minimum cutoff point, each institution has the freedom to set their own minimum requirement higher than the agreed benchmark.
