UI JAMB Cut-Off Mark for UI Admission

Let us start with the obvious. No matter how bright your WAEC scores look, or how strong your passion shines, you cannot be considered unless you scored 200 and above in JAMB. That is the bare minimum. Those below this mark are simply not eligible for Post UTME.

For those who scaled past that hurdle, the work is not yet done. Passing JAMB is only step one. Next comes the Post UTME screening, and this is where the real cut-off marks play their role.
