The Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK) has released the cut-off mark for the 2023/2024 academic session. The minimum cut-off mark for all courses is 160. This means that candidates who scored 160 or above in the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) are eligible to apply for admission to NSUK.
In addition to the UTME score, candidates must also meet the departmental cut-off marks for their chosen course of study. The departmental cut-off marks are as follows:
- Faculty of Agriculture: 160
- Faculty of Arts: 160
- Faculty of Education: 160
- Faculty of Engineering: 160
- Faculty of Law: 160
- Faculty of Management Sciences: 160
- Faculty of Science: 160
- Faculty of Social Sciences: 160
Candidates who meet the UTME and departmental cut-off marks will be invited to participate in the post-UTME screening exercise. The post-UTME screening will consist of a written examination and an oral interview.
The NSUK cut-off mark is a minimum requirement for admission to the university. Meeting the cut-off mark does not guarantee admission, as the university will also consider other factors such as the candidate’s performance in the post-UTME screening exercise, their O’level results, and their state of origin.
How to Apply for Admission to NSUK
To apply for admission to NSUK, candidates must visit the university’s website and create an account. Once they have created an account, they will be able to fill out the online application form and upload the required documents. The required documents include:
- A copy of the candidate’s UTME result slip
- A copy of the candidate’s O’level result
- A copy of the candidate’s birth certificate
- A copy of the candidate’s state of origin certificate
- A passport photograph
The deadline for submitting applications is usually in July.
The NSUK cut-off mark is a competitive benchmark that all aspiring students must strive to meet. By meeting the cut-off mark and performing well in the post-UTME screening exercise, candidates can increase their chances of gaining admission to NSUK.
