At the University of Jos (UNIJOS), a score of 185 puts you in a tricky position for Business Administration.
​While the general university cut-off is 180, UNIJOS uses "differential" cut-off marks for different faculties. For the Faculty of Management Sciences, the requirements are typically higher.
​1. The Cut-Off Reality
​For the 2025/2026 and 2026/2027 sessions, the official JAMB cut-off marks for UNIJOS are:
​University General Minimum: 180
​Business Administration: 200
​Accounting: 200
​2. What this means for your 185
​Because Business Administration is set at 200, you currently fall 15 marks short of the eligibility threshold to apply for that specific course at UNIJOS. In most cases, the online screening portal will not allow you to register for Business Administration if your score is below 200.
​3. Your Options at UNIJOS
​If you are determined to stay at the University of Jos, you can look at other courses within the same faculty or related faculties that accept 180:
​Insurance: Often 180.
​Actuarial Science: Often 180.
​B.Sc. (Ed.) Business Education: 180 (This is in the Faculty of Education, but you still study business-related subjects).
​Social Work or Criminology: 180 (Faculty of Social Sciences).
