What is a Cut Off Mark?
A cut off mark is the minimum JAMB score you must achieve before being considered for admission into a university.
- Each course has its own mark.
- Professional and competitive courses usually require higher scores.

Why Cut Off Marks Matter

FUDMA offers a wide range of courses across sciences, management, arts, and health. While the general cut off mark is 140, courses like Medicine, Nursing, and Computer Science require much higher scores.
If you are applying for the 2025/2026 academic session, aim for scores above the stated cut off. This will increase your chances of securing admission into your preferred course.
