JAMB Abolishes Cut-Off Mark (No Cut-Off Mark)

JAMB Abolishes Cut-Off Mark (No Cut-Off Mark)

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) issued a statement on its official platform on Thursday. The statement addressed recent reports concerning standardized cut-off marks for admission into Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education.

JAMB emphasized that it does not have any special cut-off mark for admissions. Instead, each tertiary institution has the authority to determine its own “minimum tolerable score” for admission purposes.

“There’s no such thing as ‘cut-off mark’ in the admission process to tertiary institutions in Nigeria, what’s obtainable is minimum tolerable score determinable by individual institutions,” it said.

This clarification comes after widespread reports claimed JAMB had established cut-off marks of 140 for universities and 100 for polytechnics and colleges. The statement highlights the distinction between JAMB’s role in conducting entrance exams and the individual institutions’ responsibility for setting admissions criteria.

The JAMB statement follows a policy meeting held in Abuja on Wednesday. The meeting involved key figures in Nigerian education, including the Minister of Education, Tahir Mamman, vice-chancellors, rectors, registrars, and other stakeholders. While details of the meeting’s discussions haven’t been publicly disclosed, the statement clarifies its position regarding cut-off marks for admissions.

Understanding the admissions process is crucial for prospective students in Nigeria. While JAMB conducts standardized entrance exams, individual universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education hold the authority to establish their own minimum score requirements for admission. This means that students should research the specific requirements of their desired institutions in addition to taking the UTME entrance exam.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) revealed the top scorers in the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) during an ongoing policy meeting.

This year’s top scores ranged from 363 to 367, highlighting the competitive nature of the exam. JAMB officials commended the dedication and hard work of the high scorers.

The list was unveiled by the Registrar of JAMB, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede during the ongoing policy meeting.

Here are the top scorers…

1. Olowu David – 367 (Ondo State)

2. Alayande David – 367 (Oyo State)

3. Orukpe Joel – 367 (Edo State)

4. Emmanuel Jeremiah – 366 (Akwa Ibom State)

5. Essiet Etini – 365 (Akwa Ibom State)

6. Ezenwoko Zara – 365 (Abia State)

7. Umoh Joshua – 365 (Akwa Ibom State)

8. Mamudu Abdulraham – 364 (Edo State)

9. Adeleke Abdulbasit – 363 (Kwara State)

10. Echem Victor – 363 (Rivers State)

11. Etute Emmanuel – 363 (Edo State)

12. Jedidiah Chidiebube – 363 (Imo State)

13. Adesanya Oluwatimilehin – 363 (Ogun State)

 

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) decided not to announce the name of the top scorer in the 2024 UTME. This decision follows previous incidents where score information was misused.

“It is common knowledge that the Board has, at various fora, restated its unwillingness to publish the names of its best-performing candidates, as it considers its UTME as only a ranking examination on account of the other parameters that would constitute what would later be considered the minimum admissible score for candidates seeking admission to tertiary institutions,” Oloyede said.

 

 

JAMB officials commended the students for their exceptional performance on this year’s challenging UTME. Their scores reflect the high standards the exam aims to maintain.

Top scorers hail from across Nigeria, showcasing the nation’s diverse talent pool. Students from Ondo, Oyo, Edo, and Akwa Ibom States achieved outstanding results.

JAMB Announces New Minimum Age Requirement for Nigerian Universities

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) clarified information about admission requirements for colleges and universities in Nigeria.

At the policy meeting, which was held on Thursday 18th July 2025, in Abuja, Nigeria, the minister of Education, Tahir Mamman made a decision that admission should not be given to candidates under the age of 18.

 

The recent announcement by the Minister of Education regarding the minimum age for admission into tertiary institutions in Nigeria has sparked a conversation among educators and parents. While some agree with the policy, others have expressed conerns.

According to him, the 18-year benchmark is linked to with the structure of the 6-3-3-4 system of education.

“JAMB is hereby instructed from admission this year to admit only eligible students. That is those who have attained 18 years by our laws,” He stated.

 

 

The Minister explained that current Nigerian law sets out a specific timeframe for primary, secondary, and tertiary education. This structure is designed for students to reach 18 years old by the time they complete secondary school and potentially qualify for university admission.”

This clarifies the Minister’s argument that the 18-year minimum age is already established by law.

“Our laws require students to be in school from six years – Yes, there are those who do that from five –  and remain in primary school for six years, basic education for three years, and secondary school for three years… It doesn’t require a statement of the minister… we are only restating what is in the law,” he added.

Professor Mamman also mentioned the Ministry of Education’s efforts to offer a wider range of educational programs. This includes providing opportunities to develop practical skills starting in primary school.”

 

 

The 2024 policy meeting about admissions for higher education in Nigeria included a discussion about the minimum age for starting university. There were different ideas presented by the stakeholders, and after considering all the input, a final decision was made about the admission age.”

Some participants at the meeting expressed concern that students who had already taken the admissions test might be affected by a new age requirement.”

 

 

Professor Kayode Ijiadunola countered the minister’s proposal at a policy meeting. He suggested 16 as the minimum age for admission, and his idea resonated with many participants, including heads of institutions, registrars, and admissions officers.

“What happens to those who have written this year’s exams and passed their exams? We reject 18 years as the minimum age requirement and are proposing 16 years,” he said.

In Summary, this year (2024), 16-year-olds who applied to tertiary institutions can still be admitted, but Starting next year (2025), the minimum age to enter these schools will be 18.

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially announced that Thursday, July 18, 2024, will be the date for its crucial Policy Meeting on Admissions into tertiary institutions across Nigeria. This annual gathering, to be presided over by the Honorable Minister of Education, Professor Tahir Mamman, is a pivotal event that shapes the educational landscape of the country.

The policy meeting serves as a cornerstone for the entire admission process, laying the groundwork for the upcoming academic year. It’s a platform where admission guidelines are meticulously crafted, application statistics are analyzed, and candidates’ performance is rigorously evaluated. One of the most critical outcomes of this meeting is the determination of the minimum acceptable admission standards for all tertiary institutions across Nigeria.

A key focus of the meeting will be the presentation of comprehensive reports by the JAMB Registrar. These reports will delve into the recently concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and provide an update on the ongoing Direct Entry (DE) applications. Furthermore, the Registrar will dissect crucial performance indicators that will influence the government’s policy directions in the realm of admissions.

To ensure a smooth and transparent process, the meeting will also address lingering issues from the previous year’s admission exercise. Stakeholders will have the opportunity to discuss challenges faced and propose solutions to prevent their recurrence. Moreover, a thorough evaluation of candidates’ performance in the current year’s UTME will be undertaken to establish the minimum admissible score for securing a place in tertiary institutions.

It’s worth noting that the previous year’s policy meeting resulted in a consensus on minimum admission requirements for universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. Building upon this foundation, the upcoming meeting will solidify the admission criteria for the current year, officially commencing the admission process.

Beyond setting admission benchmarks, the policy meeting will serve as a forum for addressing unresolved matters from the preceding academic year. Additionally, stakeholders will assess compliance with existing advisories and explore potential amendments to enhance the overall admission process.

As the nation eagerly awaits the outcome of this pivotal meeting, JAMB has pledged to provide regular updates on the proceedings. The decisions made during this gathering will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the educational aspirations of countless young Nigerians.

The policy meeting is more than just a bureaucratic exercise; it’s a platform where the future of higher education is shaped. The deliberations and decisions made will determine the opportunities available to aspiring students and, consequently, the trajectory of Nigeria’s intellectual and economic growth.

With the stakes high and expectations running strong, all eyes will be on the Honorable Minister of Education and the assembled stakeholders as they work diligently to create a robust and equitable admissions framework for the nation’s youth.

Context of the Protest

On Thursday, 4/7/2024, the University of Benin (UNIBEN) administration made the unexpected announcement of an indefinite suspension of all academic activities. This decision comes after a period of student demonstrations concerning various grievances.

Reasons for the Protest

Student frustrations reportedly stemmed from a number of recent changes, including:

  1. Limited Electricity Supply: The university had been experiencing power outages and rationing of electricity use on campus.
  2. Increased Shuttle Service Fees: The cost of using the university-provided transportation service has risen.

 

Impact of the Protest

In an attempt to bring attention to their grievances, students reportedly staged a protest that involved blocking a major highway. This action caused significant traffic congestion and disrupted commuters in the area.

Failed Negotiations and University Closure

According to a statement released by the university’s Public Relations Officer, Benedicta Ehanire, efforts to negotiate with the students proved unsuccessful. The university reportedly viewed the students’ demands, which may have included a guaranteed 24-hour electricity supply, as unrealistic. With no resolution in sight, the administration made the difficult decision to close the university indefinitely.

Details of the Closure

The university’s statement mandated that all students vacate their dorms immediately. However, the closure did not affect non-teaching staff and staff designated as essential personnel.

Financial Strain and Underlying Issues

The university’s statement also shed light on a potential contributing factor to the situation. The institution had recently faced a significant increase in its electricity bill from the Benin Electricity Distribution Company (BEDC PLC). This financial strain may have played a role in the university’s decision to limit electricity use, which became a focal point of the student protests.

Potential Effects of the Closure

An indefinite closure of a university can have a wide-ranging impact. Here are some potential consequences:

  1. Disruption of academic progress: Students may fall behind in their studies or experience difficulty completing coursework.
  2. Financial strain on students: Students who live on campus may face unexpected housing costs or have difficulty finding alternative arrangements.
  3. Strain on local communities: Businesses that rely on student patronage may experience a decline in customers. Landlords who rent rooms to students may face vacancies.
  4. Heightened tensions: The closure may increase tensions between the university administration and the student body.

 

The Importance of Communication and Dialogue in University Settings

Universities are complex institutions that rely on open communication and dialogue between students, faculty, staff, and administrators. When these groups can effectively communicate their needs and concerns, it fosters a more positive and productive learning environment.

  1. Student activism can be a powerful tool for raising awareness about important issues.
  2. University administration has a responsibility to listen to student concerns and address them in a fair and transparent manner.
  3. Finding common ground is essential for resolving conflict and moving forward.

 

Looking Ahead

The university closure is a complex situation with several contributing factors. It remains to be seen when the university will reopen and how the administration will address the underlying issues that led to the student protests.

Additional Considerations

  • Universities play a vital role in society, providing education and research opportunities that contribute to social and economic development.
  • Student protests can be a sign of a healthy democracy, where people have the right to assemble and express their views.
  • It is important to remember that there are often multiple perspectives on complex issues.
