The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board
(JAMB) has revealed in the just concluded
sensitization programme on CAPS that apart from
candidate's JAMB cut-off mark, there are other
factors that determines whether a candidates gets
admission.
These criteria comprise O'level result and other
admission criteria the school may put in place.
Oloyede said that scoring higher than the minimum
cut-off marks did not guarantee admission but
made candidates eligible for admission
consideration.
Oloyede mentioned that the cut-off mark by JAMB
is only a threshold below which no institution can
admit candidates.
Institutions have the right to determine their own
general cut-off marks and departmental cut-off
marks. However these cut-off marks must not be
below the JAMB's minimum cut-off marks.
Explaining the responsibility of JAMB, Prof.
Oloyede said "JAMB is not an examination body
rather it is a ranking body. If there are enough
spaces in the tertiary institutions there may not be
need for UTME."
