UDUSOK Cut-Off Marks for 2024/2025 Admission

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has set the minimum score for university admissions at 140 for the 2024/2025 academic year, with polytechnics and colleges of education having a minimum of 100. 

While institutions can raise their cut-off marks to 220, they cannot go below these minimums. 

As of now, UDUSOK has not announced its cut-off mark for the 2024/2025 session; the information provided here is based on the previous year’s (2023/2024) admission exercise. 

This is intended to give prospective students an idea of what to expect. Updates will be provided once the university finalizes its decision.
