What is a Cut-Off Mark?

In case you have forgotten what the term “cut-off mark” means, let’s break it down. A cut-off mark is the minimum score a student must achieve in the JAMB UTME to be considered for admission into a university or polytechnic.

JAMB (the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board) sets a general minimum score each year and then allows individual universities and polytechnics to decide their specific cut-off marks, as long as they meet JAMB’s benchmark.

Meeting the cut-off mark is very important because it’s the first step in qualifying for admission. If your score is below the cut-off, you won’t be eligible for consideration, no matter how well you perform in other stages of the admission process.
