JAMB Cut off Mark for 2024 UTME. Here are the facts

A misleading message circulating on WhatsApp claims to reveal the cut-off marks set by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) for the 2024 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) admissions.

However, these claims are entirely false and unfounded.

The viral message states:

“Just In: The JAMB cut-off Mark 2024 is the minimum score a candidate must have in the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to qualify to participate in post-UTME.
“The admissions body has announced the official JAMB cut-off mark for admissions into various tertiary institutions in the country.
“JAMB pegged a minimum of 160 marks for admission into the university, with 120 and 100 marks set for admission into colleges of education and innovative institutions.
“Also, some universities may set their cut-off marks at 180, as they have done in the past. The primary thing is that their cut-off marks must not be set below JAMB marks.”

According to the fact-checking platformDubawa, JAMB has not yet convened the policy meeting to determine the minimum cut-off marks for the 2024/2025 admissions cycle.

This meeting, which typically takes place after the UTME, is where JAMB deliberates and sets the cut-off mark thresholds for universities, polytechnics, colleges of education, and monotechnics.

It is important to note that JAMB has not made any official statement regarding the cut-off marks for the upcoming admission season.

The claims circulating on WhatsApp are simply unfounded rumors and should be treated as misinformation.

Each year, the UTME serves as a crucial examination that determines admission into tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

Once the examination is conducted and the results are released, JAMB convenes a policy meeting to establish the cut-off marks based on various factors, such as the performance of candidates and the available spaces in institutions.

Until JAMB officially announces the cut-off marks through its authorized channels, any information circulating on social media or other platforms should be regarded as unverified and potentially misleading.

Prospective candidates and stakeholders are advised to rely solely on official communications from JAMB and exercise caution when encountering claims related to cut-off marks or admission policies.
