EKSU Cut Off Mark 2025/2026 academic session is Out – Ekiti State University JAMB cut off mark and departmental cut off marks for all courses for the 2025/2026 academic session have been announced.

Ekiti State University (EKSU) is a big university in Nigeria with many courses. It is located in Ado-Ekiti and is loved by students for its academic and friendly environment.

If you’re applying to EKSU, knowing the JAMB and departmental cut-off marks is very important. JAMB cut-off mark is the minimum score you need to even be considered for admission into any course in EKSU.

Departmental cut-off marks are set by each department for their respective courses. These marks are the score you need to beat to be considered for your chosen course.

JAMB and EKSU set these marks so that only students with a certain level of academic qualification will be admitted. It’s like a filter to pick the best candidates since there are more applicants than spaces available.

Knowing these marks helps you plan better. You’ll know if your score qualifies you or if you should consider other schools or courses.

If EKSU is your first-choice institution, the initial step should be familiarising yourself with the approved admission aggregates for this year.

EKSU has different cut off marks for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.

How EKSU Screening Score is Determined

How EKSU Screening Score is Determined

  1. The number of applicants applying for admission this year will determine the cut-off mark.
  2. The availability of admission quotas in each department determines the cut-off point.
  3. Both JAMB and EKSU Post-UTME screening performances overall influence the cut-off marks.
  4. EKSU admission policy also plays a role in determining departmental cut-off marks.

Additional Information

  • If your JAMB score is below 140, you are ineligible for EKSU Post UTME screening.
  • Meeting JAMB and EKSU cut-off marks is necessary, but meeting additional requirements is also essential for admission consideration.
  • Highly competitive courses like Law, Medicine, and Nursing, among others, typically have higher cut-off points.

Conclusion

The JAMB cut-off mark is the minimum score for admission into Nigerian universities, polytechnics and colleges. 

Each school has its own departmental cut-off mark which is usually higher for competitive courses like medicine, law and engineering.

Students who meet these marks have a higher chance of getting admitted but not meeting up doesn’t mean all is lost. There are still options to explore. 

If you didn’t meet the cut-off mark, you can consider applying for courses or schools with lower requirements. The JAMB change of course or institution form allows you to switch to schools that match your score. 

Another option is applying for pre-degree or foundation programs that prepares you for direct admission in the future. 

Some schools also accept students into diploma programs which can lead to a degree later. Make sure you research schools with open admission slots and stay updated on deadlines. 

Lastly, you can try JAMB again after preparing better. Focus on your strengths and learn from this experience. Keep trying and believe every setback is an opportunity to grow stronger.

    The cut off mark is way too low for a university. I consider any school that admits those who scored below 200 for any course to be unserious.
    These are the sets of students who will constitute themselves into nuisance in the ivory tower.They are the veritable never do Wells who will go to any length to buy their way through the university or get the degree at any dishonourable means.
    Of scores are anything to go by schools should stick with a minimum entry score of 300
