Understanding the UNIABUJA Cut Off Mark
To qualify for UNIABUJA’s Post-UTME screening, every applicant must:
- Score a minimum of 180 in the 2025 UTME.
- Select UNIABUJA as your first choice during JAMB registration.
However, the real competition lies in the course-specific cut-off marks. While most programmes accept 180, highly competitive courses such as Medicine, Nursing, and Law require scores of 200–230.

Why the UNIABUJA Cut Off Mark Matters
The cut-off marks are not just numbers; they are the first gatekeepers in the admission race. With thousands of candidates chasing limited slots, these scores help streamline the process. For courses like Medicine, Nursing, and Law, the high cut-off reflects the stiff competition.
Next Step After Meeting the UNIABUJA Cut Off Mark
If your UTME score matches or exceeds the cut-off for your chosen course, the next step is to apply for the UNIABUJA Post-UTME. This is the second phase of the admission process, and success in this phase brings you closer to securing your seat.
Final Note
Whether your score has cleared the bar or fallen short, remember that admission in Nigeria is highly competitive. Meeting the UNIABUJA cut off mark is an important milestone, but persistence and preparation remain key.
