Do you want to study Law at the University of Abuja (UNIABUJA) in 2025? One of the key things you need to know is the cut‑off mark.
That Is the lowest score you’ll need in the UTME (JAMB) exam to qualify for further steps. In this article, we look at the facts from official sources so you can plan better.
What is the JAMB minimum cut‑off mark for university admission in 2025?
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) sets a base mark that all federal universities must follow. For the 2025 UTME, this national base score is 140.
That means no federal university, including UNIABUJA, will consider UTME scores below 140.
What is the official University of Abuja UTME cut‑off mark for 2025/2026?
As of now, the University of Abuja has not publicly released its official 2025/2026 cut‑off marks.
That means you can only look at the previous year’s numbers to gauge where things stand. Watch the official school site and education board announcements for updates.
What was the UTME cut‑off for Law at UNIABUJA in the last session?
For the 2024/2025 session, the official sites report that the UTME cut‑off mark for Law, and every other course, at UNIABUJA was set at 180.
This suggests the school often uses the national base (140) but sets its own higher requirement, and Law is typically in that competitive group.
Why did UNIABUJA use 180 instead of the national baseline?
The national UTME baseline is the lowest score universities can accept. But each school can raise it.
UNIABUJA likely chose 180 for 2024 to raise its standard, especially for competitive programs like Law.
That does not change the rule: your score still must be at least 140 to be considered. UNIABUJA then adds its filter.
How do I know the exact Law cut‑off for 2025 at UNIABUJA?
Watch for an official update. The university will share the final score on its official website or through JAMB announcements when the time is right.
You can bookmark the admission section at uniabuja.edu.ng and check it regularly.
Can I apply with a UTME score of 192 for Law?
Yes, you can apply. A score of 192 is well above the national base (140) and also above last year’s point (180).
That means you meet both general and likely course requirements. But remember, you’ll also need good O’Level grades and pass any Post‑UTME screening.
When do they usually release the cut‑off mark each year?
Typically, universities announce their cut‑off marks after JAMB publishes UTME results and all schools submit their screening list. This happens a few weeks into the new year.
For UNIABUJA, last year the cut‑off (180) was confirmed around May 2024, though they didn’t share a full press release. So expect a similar timeline for 2025.
