What are the Cut Off Marks?
The university cut-off mark is the number of marks that a student must have to be able to enter a university. There are different cut-off marks for each course, but they are all based on the passing grades and averages of previous students. A high school student should know how much they need in their grades to get into their top university choices.
How are cut-off marks calculated?
Cut-off Mark (For 200) = (Mathematics) + (Physics/2) + (Chemistry/2)
This formula to calculate cut-off is valid for those students who wrote their +2 exams after 2019, when the total marks were 600
For example, a student scored the following marks in the Plus 2 examination
Mathematics – 80, Physics – 86, and Chemistry – 78
Cut-off Mark = (80) + (86/2) + (78/2) = 80 + 43 + 39 = 162

FAQs
1. What is the general UTME cut-off mark for FUBK for the 2026/2027 session?
Answer: The Federal University, Birnin Kebbi (FUBK) usually sets a general UTME cut-off mark of 180 for consideration into its undergraduate programs. This means candidates must score at least 180 in the UTME to be eligible to apply for admission. Some competitive courses may require higher scores depending on the number of applicants and program demand.
2. Are there different cut-off marks for each faculty or course?
Answer: Yes. While the general minimum cut-off is 180, individual faculties or courses may have higher cut-off marks based on competitiveness. For example, courses like Medicine, Engineering, or Law typically require higher UTME scores compared to Arts or Social Science programs. FUBK usually publishes course-specific cut-off marks after the UTME results are released.
3. Does FUBK consider post-UTME scores in addition to the UTME cut-off?
Answer: Yes. FUBK conducts a post-UTME screening exercise for eligible candidates. Your UTME score must meet the minimum cut-off to qualify, but the final admission decision also takes into account your post-UTME score and other requirements such as O’Level results and aggregate scoring. Meeting the UTME cut-off does not automatically guarantee admission.
4. Can candidates with O’Level deficiencies still gain admission into FUBK?
Answer: Generally, candidates must have a minimum of five (5) O’Level credits, including English Language and Mathematics, to qualify for admission. Those with deficiencies may not be considered unless they re-sit to meet the requirements. FUBK emphasizes both UTME cut-off marks and O’Level qualifications for eligibility.
