I think its based on first choice (most preferred), 2nd (more preferred) n 3rd (preferred). Trust nig all will take university as 1st before any other n vry sure fed university will take 90% from dat number too.

Mis-interpretation is in progress. Minimum for unis is 180, i.e unis must not go below dat 180. And for polytechnics and colleges, it's 150. Dat's they must not go below 150, if they like they may add to 180 and 150.

Slave mentality!!!

ok,we have heard

vexy06: Federal Government Tuesday pegged the Joint Admission and Matriculations Board (JAMB) cut-off marks for 2014 admissions into Universities at 180, while Polytechnics and Colleges of Education(COE)were placed at 150 respectively.

The cut off points were arrived at on Tuesday, after the 5th Combined Policy meeting on admissions to tertiary institutions held at the National Universities Commission.

Supervising Minister of Education,Nyesom Wike who declared the meeting open frowned at the inability of most tertiary institutions to utilise their admission quota.

Wike however said in view of efforts to boost access, institutions which fail to utilise their admission quota for 2014 will be sanctioned.

He reiterated Federal Government’s commitment to the development of ICT training, which he said has already been inculcated as part of the standard curriculum at the secondary school level.

“I have been brief that despite the rising demand for higher education vis-a-vis the availability of a large number of qualified candidates,some institutions did not fully utilise the admissions quota approved for them by relevant regulatory agencies in 2013.

“This disservice to the Nigeria child is totally unacceptable,in line with efforts of the federal government to improve access,let me urge you all to with effect from today,work assiduously to ensure that all admission spaces in your institutions for the current year are fully utilized within the approved time frame,”he stated.

Registrar and Chief Executive of JAMB,Dibu Ojerinde in his presentation gave a statistical run down of candidates preference for tertiary education.

He said after the conduct of the 2014 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination(UTME) candidates who applied for degree awarding institutions or universities totalled 1,584,348 representing 97.070, NCE applicants totalled 25,767 representing 1.579, ND a paltry 22,072 representing 1.349 while NID had just 46 representing 0.003.

Ojerinde wondered while Nigeria’s educational system has consistently failed to embrace technical education in its quest for industrialization, saying the British which Nigeria copied the polytechnic education from now award degree in all its polytechnics.

I hope all OND/HND students/graduate can see the difference in cut-off mark, not later after graduating, they will be claiming equality with a BSc holder and won't stop complaining about the BSc/HND dichotomy. If u want to go to the university write JAMB and pass and not settle for less and blame GOVT at the end if u didn't get same treatment as those with BSc or get to the top eventually. A stitch in time....

ilorioluwaseun: oau,unilag & ui still 200

Whr u hear that

Disparity or dichotomy in d poly and uni graduate wil Neva cease as long as there's is/are variations in this jamb cut-off mark issue. Nigeria copied polytechnic education system frm d British & yet, for a very long time now, British had converted all her polytechnics 2 degree awarding institutions which Nigeria can neva copy in her widest imagination becos of d neglect & decay in d educational system of d entire country. Honestly, it shows hw backward we are when it has 2 do wt transformation & development. It's really a shame when our graduates cannot compete globally in all ramification.

Always said every year perhaps, those stubborn universities wont accept

ilorioluwaseun: oau,unilag & ui still 200

Even FUTA won't accept that
