The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has pegged the cut-off mark for admission into Nigeria universities 150.
The Minister of Education Tunji Alausa, stated this on Tuesday during the 2025 Policy Meeting on Admissions, held at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja.
He insisted that the age requirement will be enforced through its Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS), with efforts made to accommodate candidates who would turn 16 by 31st August 2025
He also said the cut-off mark for colleges for nursing is 140, colleges of agriculture 100, and colleges of education 100.
“The minimum admissible scores for admissions for the next academic session have been fixed at 150 for universities, 100 for polytechnics, 100 for colleges of education, and 140 for colleges of nursing sciences by the stakeholders (Heads of Tertiary Institutions),” JAMB wrote on its X handle also.
This is coming months after JAMB admitted to technical glitches in the conduct of the 2025 UTME.
It thereafter rescheduled a supplementary exam for some students across the country.
