JAMB UTME Cutoff Mark For Polytechnics 2025/2026

JAMB suggested the minimum cut off marks for admissions into Universities, Polytechnics, Colleges of education, and Innovation enterprise to be at 140, 100, 100, and 100 respectively.

Cut-off Mark For Public Polytechnics

The approved cutoff mark for 2025/2026 admission into Nigerian public polytechnics is 100.

This means that JAMB expects each Poly to admit candidates with 100 and above into their institutions. However, scoring 100 in JAMB UTME does not guarantee you obtain admission into a polytechnic in Nigeria. Polytechnics are at liberty to peg their cut off mark at 100 or more based on the school academic standard and reputation.

Cut off Mark For Private Polytechnics

Private Polytechnics in Nigeria were asked to fix their minimum JAMB score for cutoff marks at 100.

Consequently, as some private polytechnics may offer admission at a cutoff mark score of 110, some other private polytechnics may choose to raise their Cutoff mark to 120, while some departments may require even higher cutoff than what the institution requires for admission.

Below is a brief JAMB UTME cutoff marks 2025/2026 for Polytechnics, Universities, and Colleges of education:

• Public Universities — 140
• Private Universities — 140
• Public Polytechnics — 100
• Private Polytechnics — 100
