The announcement has been made regarding the JAMB cut-off marks for the 2023/2024 admissions. This information was disclosed during the 2023 Policy Meeting on Admissions to Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria, which took place on June 24th, 2023, at the National Judicial Institute in Abuja.
The minimum scores for securing admission into universities in Nigeria have been set at 140 by JAMB. Similarly, the minimum cut-off marks for Polytechnics and Colleges of Education have also been fixed at 100 each. However, it is important to note that institutions have the freedom to establish their own individual cut-off marks. Nonetheless, no institution will be permitted to admit any candidate who scores below the specified benchmark.
JAMB has set the fee for Post-UTME screening at N2,000. According to JAMB, any institution that wishes to conduct screening can do so, but the fee for the screening should not exceed N2,000.
Following the release of the cut-off marks, public tertiary institutions will commence the announcement of their Post-UTME sales forms and screening dates. Candidates should remain vigilant and watch out for these announcements.
