WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING JAMB 2017 CUT OFF MARKS - ASUU, VCS, NANS

The Vice-chancellors and the Academic Staff Union of Universities have said that they are not going to accept the cut off marks set by JAMB.


The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) earlier announced the cut off mark for Universities as 120 and 100 for Polytechnics.

The Vice-Chancellors said that this would lower the admission standard and add no value to the nations University system.


The Vice-Chancellor of University of Ibadan, Prof. Idowu Olayinka stated that the institute would not admit any one who scored 120 in the just concluded Utme. But he recommended the Federal Government on the decision to re introduce the Post UTME.

NANS President, Chinonso Obadiah said if JAMB refuses to comply, the decision would be resisted.

ASUU also condemned this action referring to it as a sad policy, as it would destroy the standard of Nigerian Public Universities.
