The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the cut-off mark for admission into all public universities in Nigeria for the 2023/2024 academic session. The cut-off mark is the minimum score that a candidate must obtain in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to be considered for admission into a particular university.
The cut-off mark for BU for the 2023/2024 academic session is 160. This means that candidates who score at least 160 in the UTME will be considered for admission into BU.
Here are some of the factors that BU considers when determining the cut-off mark for each course:
- The number of applicants for the course
- The available places on the course
