Watermark

The University of Ibadan (UI) has officially announced its cut-off marks for the 2024/2025 academic session, sparking excitement and anticipation among students aspiring to secure admission into one of Nigeria's most prestigious institutions.

Known for its rigorous academic standards, UI remains a top choice for many candidates. As the cut-off marks have been released, this is a crucial moment for prospective students aiming to join the university for the 2024/2025 session.

Why UI Cut-Off Marks Matter

Understanding the cut-off marks is essential if you’re planning to apply to the University of Ibadan this year. These marks serve as a benchmark to determine eligibility for admission into various programs. They represent the minimum score a candidate must achieve in both the JAMB and Post-UTME exams to be considered for admission. UI's admission process also takes into account several categories, such as Merit, Catchment Areas, and Educationally Less Developed States (ELDS), making it important for applicants to know where they stand.

Categories of Admission Consideration

The university classifies applicants into three categories:

  1. Merit: Applicants who meet the general cut-off mark and have excellent academic scores.
  2. Catchment Area: Applicants from states within the university’s catchment area may have slightly lower cut-off marks.
  3. Educationally Less Developed States (ELDS): Candidates from states considered to be educationally disadvantaged may receive a lower cut-off.

These categories provide a more inclusive approach to admission, ensuring students from all backgrounds have a chance to study at UI.

Achieving this score does not guarantee admission but is a prerequisite to proceeding to the next phase of the admission process.

Important Guidelines for Applicants

It’s important for all candidates to stay vigilant and only trust official university communication regarding admission. Beware of fraudulent messages or individuals claiming to provide admission assistance for a fee. Always refer to the official University of Ibadan website for reliable updates on the admission process.

Final Thoughts

Securing admission to the University of Ibadan is a highly competitive process, but with careful preparation and understanding of the cut-off marks, candidates can better position themselves for success. Be sure to keep track of all key dates and official announcements to ensure a smooth admission process.
