Whether you have already chosen Ebonyi State University (EBSU) as your first choice in JAMB or you are considering it, you are on the right path. However, admission into any university in Nigeria is highly competitive, with a large number of students vying for limited spaces. To ensure transparency, universities, including EBSU, release departmental cut off marks, which determine admission eligibility. In this guide, we will provide you with the JAMB and departmental cut off marks for different courses in EBSU.
JAMB Cut Off Mark: JAMB cut off mark is the minimum score required for eligibility to register for EBSU’s Post UTME screening. The JAMB cut off mark for EBSU this year is 140 for all courses. This means that any student who scored 140 and above in the JAMB exam can proceed to the next stage of admission. Students who score below 140, even if it’s 139, will not be able to apply for EBSU’s Post UTME.
Departmental Cut Off Mark: While a JAMB score of 140 makes you eligible to sit for EBSU’s Post UTME exam, it does not guarantee admission. Each course has its own departmental cut off mark, which determines if a student will be offered admission. The more competitive the course, the higher the cut off mark. Below is a list of courses offered in EBSU and their respective departmental cut off marks:
