JAMB Cut-off Mark for Admission Exercise in 2023–2024
Did you sit for the last UTME and anticipate the JAMB cut-off mark for the 2023/2024 admissions? We are pleased to inform you that the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) registrar has released the cut-off marks.
As we all know, every potential student must meet the JAMB cut-off mark for universities, polytechnics, and colleges. The minimum UTME score required to be admitted to your desired school is the JAMB cut-off mark.
Nonetheless, the cut-off marks for specific colleges, universities, and polytechnics are marginally higher than the JAMB cut-off point. Consequently, the final score is not necessarily the JAMB cut-off mark. All applicants must, however, fulfill it.
JAMB registrars often announce the cut-off date. The deadline for 2023–2024 admissions has been issued by the current registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede. He states that the cut-off for universities is 140, and for polytechnics and education colleges, it is 100.
JAMB Cut-off Mark: Table
| SN | Institutions | Cut-off Mark |
| 1 | Universities | 140 |
| 2 | Polytechnics | 100 |
| 3 | Colleges | 100 |
How the JAMB Cut-off Mark Is Defined
The JAMB authorities examine the number of students who took the nationwide exam and their results following each Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). Following that, they meet with the nation’s higher education institutions and request that they submit their cut-off marks.
Additionally, the institutions determine their cut-off marks by looking at the percentage of students who select them as their first and second choice and the students’ UTME scores. Certain academic institutions set a higher cut-off mark than JAMB, while others use the same.

What Happens If I Don’t Make the JAMB Cut-off Mark?
There is always a way out if the JAMB cut-off score for the university of your choice still needs to be met. You can transfer to a polytechnic if it is a university. In the latter case, you can move to a college. You will need to get ready for another UTME if you still need to fulfil the college’s requirements, which are the bare minimum.
