JAMB To Determine Admissions Cut-Off Marks July 14

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says it will hold its 2015 Policy meeting on July 14 to determine cut-off marks for admission of candidates into tertiary institutions.

The board said it has concluded all arrangements to commence the process of the 2015 admissions.

Speaking to journalists Thursday, JAMB’s spokesperson, Benjamin Fabian, said the 2015 Policy Meeting, where the cut-off points for admissions are usually decided at, has been fixed for 14th July, 2015.

He said the cut-off point will be chosen after extensive deliberations with Vice-Chancellors of Universities, Provost of Colleges of Education and Rectors of Polytechnics, Monotechnics, Innovative Enterprise Institutions and other stakeholders.

Mr. Fabian said the exercise is interesting because of the success witnessed with the first full-blown Computer Based Test.

“The exercise has proved that our education system still has some hope. Don’t forget that in any educational system, world over, the examination process makes the difference,” he said.
