⚠️ Important Notes on Cut-Off Marks
- Aggregate Score: These figures represent the Aggregate Score used for admission, calculated from a combination of your JAMB UTME Score and your MAUTECH Screening/Post-UTME Score. They are not just the JAMB score alone.
- Competitive Courses: The most competitive and professional courses, such as Medicine and Surgery (MBBS) and Nursing Science, have the highest cut-off marks, often requiring an excellent performance in both JAMB and a mandatory CBT Aptitude Test.
- Guideline: These marks are based on the admission guidelines from recent sessions. The official cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 session will be finalized only after the screening process is completed and the performance data of all applicants has been analyzed.
