The JAMB cut off Mark 2024 is the minimum score a candidate must have in the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to qualify to participate in post-UTME.
The cut off mark is a requirement for admission into Federal Universities, State Universities, Polytechnics, and Colleges of Education for the 2024/2025 Academic Session.
The admissions body has announced the official JAMB cut-off mark for admissions into various tertiary institutions in the country.
JAMB pegged a minimum of 160 marks for admission into the university, with 120 and 100 marks set for admission into Colleges of Education and Innovative Institutions.
The JAMB cut-off mark
The cut-off-mark principle is a guideline for JAMB in regulating the admission procedures on tertiary institutions. The cut-off mark must be met by the candidates before they can be able to apply for post Unified Tertiary Matriculation examination (UTME).
It serves as a benchmark set by JAMB in collaboration with educational authorities to regulate the admission process and ensure fairness.
The JAMB cut off mark 2024 is a minimum for all schools, thus allowing universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education to set new (higher) cut-off marks for their.
This is the reason why certain universities take 200 as their JAMB cut off mark, after JAMB has pegged it as 160.
Also, some universities may set their cut-off marks at 180, as they have done in the past. The primary thing is that their cut-off marks must not be set below jamb marks.

- Federal Universities – 160

As mentioned earlier, it is in the power of institutions to set cut-off marks higher than JAMB’s.
