Introduction To The Term ”Cut Off Mark”

Many people used to mistake the term ”cut off mark” as just a mark which schools use as admission criteria.

What Is Cut Off Mark?

Generally, Cut Off Mark is the required mark you need to be considered for admission by a school. If you score below the general cut-off mark of a school, you will not be qualified to apply for their Post-UTME, which means you are not qualified for admission into that school. e.g. If the general cut-off mark of a school is 200, even if you score 199, you won’t be qualified for admission into that institute.

What Is Departmental Cut Off Mark?

Departmental cut-off mark is the score you need to be admitted into a course/department in a particular school.

For example, a school may have a general minimum cut-off mark of 200 but their cut-off mark for courses like Pharmacy, Law, Medicine may be 230 or even higher. Usually, the more competitive a course is the higher its cut-off mark.
