Federal University Gashua (FUGASHUA) is a university in Yobe State, Nigeria.
Many students want to study there because of the good programmes and opportunities.
But before you can gain admission into the university, you must meet the minimum requirements especially the cut off mark.
The cut off mark is the minimum score you must score in your JAMB to be considered for admission into your programme at FUGASHUA.
FUGASHUA has different cut off marks for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
In this article, we will list all FUGASHUA courses along with their respective cut off marks and explain how FUGASHUA determines its marks.
What Is FUGASHUA Cut Off Mark for 2025?
Every year, FUGASHUA sets a cut off mark for each programme based on the number of candidates and the competitiveness of the course. This cut off mark helps the university to select students who meet the basic requirements for their programmes. The cut off mark for 2025 session is 160.
If your JAMB score is 160 and above, you can proceed to the next stage of the admission process. The next stage after meeting the cut off mark is to participate in FUGASHUA’s Post-UTME screening. But please note that some courses may have higher cut off mark than others. So always check the requirements for your department or programme of interest.
FUGASHUA Departmental Cut Off Mark for 2025
The general cut off is 160 but different departments in FUGASHUA may require higher marks depending on the course and competition. Below are the general cut off marks by department:
- Faculty of Science: If you want to study Science courses like Physics, Biology or Mathematics in the Faculty of Science, you need to score at least 170 in JAMB. Science courses are competitive so the cut off mark is higher.
- Faculty of Social Sciences: Social Sciences courses like Sociology, Political Science, Economics and Psychology have a cut off mark of 170. These courses are also competitive so scoring above the general cut off will increase your chances.
- Faculty of Arts and Humanities: If you want to study History, Languages or Literature, the cut off mark is 160. This faculty has a lower cut off mark compared to technical departments.
- Faculty of Education: For students who want to study Education courses like English Education or Educational Management, the minimum JAMB score is 160 as well. Education courses are popular but not as competitive as some of the courses in the science or engineering faculties.
- Faculty of Engineering: The Faculty of Engineering is the most competitive in FUGASHUA. Courses like Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Civil Engineering have a cut off mark of 190. These fields have high demand and limited slots so they require higher JAMB scores.
- Faculty of Agriculture: Agricultural Economics or Agronomy courses have a cut off mark of 170. This faculty has fewer students applying so the cut off mark is moderate.
Always check the cut off mark for your course to avoid confusion and to meet the requirements.
How Are FUGASHUA Cut Off Marks Determined?
FUGASHUA determines its cut off marks based on several factors. Below are the key ones that influence the marks for each session:
- National Performance in JAMB: After every JAMB exam, FUGASHUA reviews how candidates performed in the exam. If candidates performed well nationwide, they may increase the cut off mark to reflect higher academic standard. If candidates performed poorly nationwide, they may lower it.
- Course Popularity: Some courses at FUGASHUA are more popular than others. Courses like Medicine, Engineering and Law attract more applicants. Because of the limited space in these courses, the university may increase the cut off mark to ensure only the best candidates are admitted.
- Number of Available Seats: Universities have limited space for each course. This will determine how high or low the cut off mark is. When a course is over subscribed (more students applying than available space), the cut off mark increases to limit the number of candidates that can be admitted.
