The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the cut-off marks for universities, polytechnics and Colleges of Education for 2019/2020 academic session.
Since the 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) was held in April and the release of it’s results a few weeks later, many jambites have been anxious and eager to know the cut-off marks so as to know their fates.
According to JAMB, the cut-off mark was released after its 2018 Combined Policy Meetings on Admissions into Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria late last year.
Speaking on the matter, JAMB Registrar, Is-haq Oloyede, said institutions, with the decision, are not to go below the minimum cut-off points adopted at the meeting for admissions.
“What JAMB has done is to recommend; We will only determine the minimum, whatever you determine as your admission cut-off mark is your decision,” he said.
“In order to enhance transparency in our educational sector, no automated admission for those without the necessary requirements will be tolerated by the board.”
Below are the cut-off marks for the 2019/2020 JAMB UTME:
Universities — 140
Polytechnics — 120
Innovative entrepreneur institutes — 110
Colleges of education — 100
