FUGUS Cut Off Mark 2024/2025 Academic Session

Federal University Gusau cut off mark 2024/2025. FUGUS has officially released its cut-off mark for the 2024/2025 academic session. However, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has set a general minimum cut-off mark of 140 for universities in Nigeria for the 2024 admissions. Regardless of the JAMB cut-off mark, the Federal University Gusau has set its cut-off mark, and aspirants who chose the Federal University Gusau (FUGUS) as their first choice institution must meet the minimum FUGUS cut-off mark to be eligible for admission.

A cut-off mark is the minimum score that candidates must achieve in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to be eligible for admission into higher institutions of learning to study their preferred course. These marks are determined based on factors such as the number of applicants, the institution’s students’ capacity, and the competitiveness of specific programs.

Achieving the minimum FUGUS cut-off mark does not guarantee admission. The university also considers other factors, such as candidates’ performance in post-UTME screenings, O’level results, and the number of available slots for each program. Therefore, candidates should ensure they perform excellently in all aspects of the admission process.
