Our correspondent gathered that prior to the 2023 policy meeting held by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, all institutions were advised to propose the cut-off marks for the conduct of their admissions.
In the list sighted by our correspondent in Abuja, seven institutions indicated their minimum admissions benchmark scores to be 200 and above out of which four were federal universities.
The PUNCH reports that Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian universities present at the 2023 policy meeting, however, unanimously agreed on 140 as the minimum benchmark for the admissions of the 2023/2024 academic session.
