Official: JAMB 2017 Cut-off Marks, Admission Deadline Announced by Schoolparrot(m): 9:04pm On Aug 22, 2017


– JAMB released new cut-off marks for tertiary institutions

– The institutions are however at liberty to raise theirs above JAMB’s requirement

– JAMB also lifted the ban on Post-UTME



The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the cut-off marks for Nigerian tertiary institutions while also lifting the ban for post UTME examination.


Premium Times reports that these decisions were taken at the 2017 Combined Policy Meetings on Admissions into Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria which ended on Tuesday, August 22.


Minimum cut- off marks for tertiary institutions are:-

› Universities were pegged at 120

› Polytechnics and colleges of education
were pegged at 100

› Innovative enterprising institutes was
pegged at 110




IMPORTANT NOTICE:-


Institutions were however allowed to raise their cut-off marks above JAMB’s stipulation.

It was also agreed that admissions into public degree awarding institutions for the 2017 UTME examination will end on January 15, 2018 while private institutions will end theirs on January 31, 2018.

It was also revealed that decisions on first choice
candidates by universities will be expected to be
complete October 15 and second choice candidates
will end on December 15, 2017.

The rest of the students seeking admission will be available for other institutions till the January closing dates.


Ishaq Oloyede who is the registrar of JAMB said a Central Admission Processing System (CAPS) will be used to streamline admission processes among institutions based on challenges associated with the former approach.

He said:-

"All over the world, there is agitation for dynamic educational policy,” he said.

“JAMB only admits for National Diploma, not Higher National Diploma; so why should we use the same requirement for ND and BSC, that is unreasonable parity.

I remember those days when Degree applicants and OND applicants wrote different entry exams until the system was erroneously unified...
But I think this current registrar really knows that there is a big difference between Mercedes-Benz and Kia.
