ZAMSU Releases Admission Cut-Off Marks for 2025/2026: What You Need to Know
Zamfara State University (ZAMSU) has officially released its approved admission cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 academic session, providing clarity for prospective students planning their university applications.
What This Announcement Means
Cut-off marks represent the minimum JAMB scores required for consideration in specific programs. Meeting these thresholds doesn't guarantee admission, but falling below them eliminates your candidacy for those departments.
ZAMSU's release of these figures helps applicants make informed decisions about:
- Which programs they qualify for based on their JAMB scores
- Whether to apply through Post-UTME or consider alternative pathways
- How competitive their chosen programs might be
Accessing the Complete List
The university published the full cut-off marks in an official document. To view the complete departmental requirements:
- Visit the original announcement on the university's communication channels
- Check JAMB's Central Admissions Processing System (CAPS) for official admission information
- Contact ZAMSU's admissions office directly for program-specific guidance
Understanding Cut-Off Mark Variations
Different programs typically have different cut-off marks based on:
- Program Popularity: High-demand programs like Medicine, Law, and Engineering often require higher scores
- Available Spaces: Limited capacity programs maintain higher thresholds
- Subject Requirements: Programs with specific O'Level subject demands may adjust their cut-offs accordingly
- University Policy: Institutional standards and accreditation requirements influence minimum scores
What to Do Next
If Your Score Meets the Cut-Off:
- Verify that ZAMSU appears as your first or second choice on JAMB
- Prepare for Post-UTME screening if the university requires it
- Gather required documents: O'Level results, birth certificate, etc.
- Monitor JAMB CAPS for admission status updates
If Your Score Falls Below the Cut-Off:
- Consider changing your program choice to one matching your score
- Explore Direct Entry pathways if you have ND/NCE/equivalent qualifications
- Look into foundation or remedial programs that provide alternative entry routes
- Research other institutions where your score meets requirements
Important Reminders
- Meeting the cut-off mark is necessary but not sufficient for admission
- O'Level results, Post-UTME performance, and available spaces all factor into final decisions
- Cut-off marks can vary slightly year-to-year based on applicant pool strength
- Always verify information through official ZAMSU channels
Contact ZAMSU Admissions
For specific questions about your eligibility or program requirements, reach out to the university's admissions office directly. They can provide personalized guidance based on your JAMB score, O'Level results, and program preferences.
Having clear cut-off information early in the admission cycle allows you to plan strategically and maximize your chances of securing admission to your preferred program.
