The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said it will announce the 2025 admission cut-off marks for universities, polytechnics, colleges of education, and monotechnics on Tuesday, July 8.
This decision would be reached at the annual policy meeting scheduled to take place at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre in Abuja.
JAMB announced the date on Wednesday through its official X handle.
“The 2025 Policy Meeting holds on 8th July, 2025 at Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja.
“The policy meeting is the gathering of stakeholders where policy guidelines and other relevant regulations on admission are discussed and ratified for the next academic year.
“Please note that attendance is strictly by invitation, however you can follow us on our social media handles for live coverage,” the statement read.
The meeting brings together important players in the education sector, including heads of tertiary institutions.
They will also decide the minimum UTME scores, also known as cut-off marks, for admission into higher institutions.
JAMB said it will also use the event to work with vice-chancellors, rectors, and provosts on admission guidelines and timelines, including deadlines for registration and application.
The top scorers in the 2025 UTME would also be announced during the event. (The PUNCH)
