Meeting the general JAMB cut-off is only step one. Here is the official framework tertiary institutions use to allocate seats:
Open to candidates across all 36 states with the highest composite scores. No state or regional preference applies.
Reserved for candidates whose state of origin falls within the university's designated surrounding geopolitical zone.
Allocated to candidates from Educationally Less Developed States (e.g., Bayelsa, Ebonyi, Zamfara, Taraba, Sokoto, Yobe).
Most Nigerian universities use the 50:30:20 or 50:50 composite screening scoring system:
Your score over 400 is scaled to 50% by dividing by 8 (e.g., 280 ÷ 8 = 35.0%).
Your screening test score over 100 is converted to 30% by multiplying by 0.3 (e.g., 70 × 0.3 = 21.0%).
5 core subjects graded (A1=4.0, B2=3.6, B3=3.2, C4=2.8, C5=2.4, C6=2.0) out of 20 points (e.g., 5 As = 20.0%).
