2021/2022 Admission: JAMB To Announces Cut-Off Mark August 31

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, will announce cut-off points for admission into tertiary institutions for 2021/2021 session on August 31 after its policy meeting where decisions and admission cut-off marks are decided, which has been fixed on that date.

The board’s weekly news bulletin released by the Head, Public Relations and Protocol, Fabian Benjamin, revealed that the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, approved Tuesday, August 31, 2021, for the 2021 policy meeting.

The policy meeting which is always chaired by the Minister of Education, will have all heads of tertiary institutions as well as heads of regulatory agencies in the sector, and other critical stakeholders, such as chairmen of the committees on education at the lower and upper chambers of the National Assembly in attendance.

The meeting, in addition to other deliberations, would take a stand on acceptable minimum admissions standards to be applied in all admissions to be undertaken by all tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

The meeting will be streamed live on the Board’s website, www.jamb.gov.ng and other social media platforms.

JAMB, however, warned tertiary institutions against going ahead with admission before the meeting is held.

The Board makes it clear that it is an abuse of process for any institution to commence any admission exercise before this meeting as it is this forum that gives this authorisation.
