In Nigeria, there isn’t one single UTME (JAMB) cut-off mark that applies to all nursing programs — it varies by school and session. The score you need depends on the institution you’re applying to and how competitive that programme is. �

General UTME Cut-Off Marks for Nursing
Minimum UTME score to be eligible for nursing admission at many universities is usually 160–200. Scoring this much makes you eligible for Post-UTME screening, but doesn’t guarantee admission. �

Many competitive federal universities often require 200 or above, and successful candidates often score 230+ in UTME. �

Examples of How Cut-Off Marks Differ by School
At University of Benin nursing applicants must score at least 200 in UTME to enter screening, though actual admitted students often have 250+. �

At University of Ibadan, aiming for 260+ makes you more competitive for Nursing due to how high the departmental cut-offs tend to be. �

Some universities may set even higher thresholds — for example, some reports suggested 280+ departmental cut-offs at schools like Nnamdi Azikiwe University (though official figures vary each year). �

🧠 Important Things to Know
Meeting the UTME cut-off only qualifies you to write the Post-UTME/screening test. Your post-UTME score, O’Level results, and overall aggregate ranking influence final admission. �

Different schools have different cut-offs — private and state universities often have slightly lower UTME requirements than elite federal schools. �
