Unity Schools Cut Off Marks In Nigeria

Posted on May 26, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on Unity Schools Cut Off Marks In Nigeria

Federal Unity Schools are important attributes of any successful nation. The federal government of Nigeria established the unity schools as a means of fostering National unity and cohesion, by the coming together and interaction of Pupils from all different parts of the country.

But the disparity in cut off marks into these unity schools has however become a subject of intense debates among Nigerians and these have questioned Government’s actual commitment to “nationwide cohesion and educational development”.

This list contains all Federal unity Schools cut off marks in Nigeria. According to some section of the Nigerian populace, this list is a representation of “Institutionalized injustice” in Nigeria, as a candidate seeking for admission from the Northern parts of the Country have a better chance of gaining admission than a candidate from other parts of the Country.

 

NCEE 2023: Common Entrance Cut off Marks and Grading System

Mr. Abubakar Gana, the acting registrar of the National Examination Council (NECO), has announced that admission to Federal Government Unity Colleges will be determined by a 60 percent merit-based admissions policy and a 40 percent quota, along with other admission factors.

The National Common Entrance Examination is eligible to pupils in their final grade of primary school (Primary 6) who are between 10–13-years-old. Every student within the bracket has to sit for their Common Entrance Examination to be admitted to a federal government secondary—or unity—school.

The Common Entrance seeks to select the best candidates from every State into Federal Unity secondary schools. There are just 106 Federal Unity secondary schools in Nigeria and the competition is fierce.

The exam is out of 200 marks. When the results are released, the subjects are grouped into four segments and the marks available are below:

  • Mathematics & Basic Science (out of 40 and 10 respectively)
  • English & Social Studies (out of 40 and 20 respectively)
  • Quantitative & Vocational Aptitude (out of 40 and 10 respectively)
  • Verbal Aptitude (out of 40 respectively)

Every State in Nigeria has a different weighted pass mark for the common entrance exam which is designed to take into account the wide differentials between Nigerian states.

In addition, to weighted State cut-offs, the State pass mark applicable to an individual child is dependent not upon which State they sat the exam, but the State that the child’s father is from.

For example, if a child sits the common entrance exam in Ogun state but their father is from Kastina, the cut-off marks for the child will be based upon the Kastina State cut-off not the Ogun State cut-off.

 

When you see, “QUALIFIED FOR SELECTION UNDER NATIONAL MERIT” What Does It Mean?

When a candidate is qualified under National Merit, it shows that the candidate exceeds the State Quota and gets the National Merit Cut Off of 170 and above. This simply means that the candidate will be admitted into the school he or she selected and first choice and his or her name will come out on Merit List.

 

When you see, “QUALIFIED FOR SELECTION UNDER STATE QUOTA” What Does It Mean?

Candidate that is selected under state quota simply implies that the candidate did not meet up to National Merit Cut Off of 170 and above but was considered for admission under state quota, that, is state cut off mark. This means his or her name will come out or is considered for admission either in his first or second choice depending on the number of persons that were shortlisted under merit.

 

When you see, “THE MEANING OF NOT QUALIFIED FOR SELECTION” What Does It Mean?

This simply means that the candidate did not get up to the State’s Quota or Cut Off Mark or Point let alone the National Merit Cut Off Point. It shows that candidate will not considered for admission unless maybe via supplementary which is rarely possible.
