ABUJA — Heads of tertiary education institutions in the country and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, (JAMB) have pegged the minimum cut-off mark for admissions in the 2022/2023 academic session.
The 2022 Policy Meeting on Admissions to Tertiary Institutions, presided by the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, in Abuja pegged minimum cut-off marks for universities 140, Polytechnics 100, and Colleges of Education 100.
JAMB’s Registrar, Professor Ishaq Oloyede, announced the cut-off after thorough debates and votes by Vice-chancellors of Universities, Rectors of Polytechnics, and Provosts of Colleges of Education.
“The implication was that every institution has the right to fix its own cut-off mark even up to 220. No one would be allowed to go less than the agreed minimum marks of 100 for Colleges of Education, 100 for Polytechnics and 140 for Universities,” he explained.
The meeting advocated for ten percent discretional power of admission to be given to heads of tertiary institutions as part of the review of admission criteria.
