140 was approved as the national minimum cut-off mark for admission into public universities. 100 was decided for Polytechnics and Colleges of Education.

JAMB Registrar Prof Ishaq Oloyede explained that the aforementioned points are the minimum, but that does not mean that institutions must comply solely on it.

“Institutions have the liberty to determine their cut-off point but must not be below the cut-off agreed at the policy meeting,” he explained.

Public tertiary institutions will begin announcing their Post-UTME sales forms and screening dates soon.
