Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) for the 2025/2026

The official cut-off mark for Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) for the 2025/2026 academic session has not yet been released. This information is typically announced after the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has concluded its policy meeting and released the national minimum cut-off scores.

General & Departmental Cut-Off Marks

While we await the official 2025/2026 announcement, we can use the previous year’s cut-off marks as a reliable guide.

For the 2024/2025 session, UNIZIK’s general cut-off mark was 160. However, for more competitive courses in faculties like Medicine, Law, and some Social Sciences, the benchmark was set higher at 200.

It’s crucial to understand that meeting the general cut-off mark only makes you eligible for the Post-UTME screening. Admission is determined by your aggregate score, which must meet the specific cut-off for your chosen department.

How is the Aggregate Score Calculated?

Your final admission score (aggregate) is a combination of your JAMB score and your Post-UTME score. UNIZIK typically uses the following formula:

Aggregate Score = (JAMB Score × 0.8) + (Post-UTME Score × 0.2)

For example, if you scored 250 in JAMB and 70 in the Post-UTME:

JAMB component: 250 × 0.8 = 200
Post-UTME component: 70 × 0.2 = 14
Your Aggregate Score = 214

This final score is what will be compared against the departmental cut-off mark for your chosen course.
