UMYU JAMB Cut off Mark For All Courses 2025/2026 Academic Session

UMYU JAMB cut off mark for all courses for 2025/2026 academic session is out. Therefore all candidates who put the Umaru Musa Yar’adua University (UMYU) as their preferred choice of higher institution during the UTME registration can confirm if they meet the current UMYU cut-off mark for 2025/2026 academic session.

Candidates who meet the cut off mark  would then proceed for UMYU internal screening exercise, and are thereby are advised to carry all documents along including recent passport photographs (8 copies preferably). See the approved cut off mark of UMYU at the end of this post.

From time to time, we remind candidates of the benefits of meeting UMYU cut off mark for JAMB is that they become eligible to sit for the post UTME or screening exercise in the school chosen during UTME registration and also to study any of the courses offered so long as the candidates get a good score in the internal screening exercise.
