After your Jamb exam, the next thing is to ensure you meet up with the Jamb cut off mark set for your institution of choice. Without scoring up to the Jamb cut off mark, the candidate will have to change to another institution, or perhaps, come again the following year (if he or she is adamant about attending that particular institution). 

However, as far as Kaduna State University Jamb cut off mark 2020 is concerned, aspirants should know that the cut off mark is yet to be made known, but we expect something to come up in the following weeks. Therefore, just as stated earlier, let us work with the last session’s so you can have an idea of how things work with the institution. 

Last year, after students have been shown their Jamb results, the announcement was made that candidates who applied for admission into the Kaduna State University (KASU) and were able to score 170 and above in the examination, are the ones eligible to write KASU post UTME screening exercise.

It was also added that the candidates must ensure they possess relevant O’Levels results, as the absence of this will also disqualify them.

That is to say, KASU Jamb cut off mark for the 2020/2021 academic session is 170, although some courses (competitive ones) have higher scores cut off.

For students who won’t be able to meet up with their departmental cut off mark, the best thing is to either start searching for other institutions to put up with, or to check if they can do a change, of course, to try their luck with other courses that won’t mind their cut off marks. This should tell you already that every department won’t bring up the same cut off mark. Some competitive departments will set very high cut off marks, while those that aren’t competitive would be on the moderated side.

Therefore, if you are going for a very competitive course, no one should force you to work harder to ensure you are more prepared.

Therefore, a large chunk of them won’t get admitted into that particular department, especially if they were not able to meet up with the cut off mark that was set by the management.

Aspirants are to be careful and shouldn’t fall victim to those out there parading themselves as staff of Kaduna State University. Some of them will promise to sort out your admission for you only if you can pay a particular amount of money into a private account number. Please, don’t waste your hard-earned money. Getting admitted to the University is not difficult if we can follow the proper instructions.
