How does JambAdvisor calculate my admission chances?

We compare your JAMB score against historical departmental cut-off marks, factoring in catchment area rules, O'Level sitting requirements, and university ownership (federal, state, or private) to produce a probability ranking for each school.

Is checking my admission chances free?

Yes. You can check your admission chances without paying — you just need a quick, free account so we can save your results and let you revisit them.

What information do I need to check my chances?

At minimum your JAMB score and preferred course. Adding your state of origin, O'Level status, and budget sharpens the ranking with catchment and affordability adjustments.

Can I check my chances before JAMB results are released?

Yes — use your expected or previous score to explore likely outcomes, then rerun the check the moment your official result is out for an updated ranking.

What Actually Determines Your Chances

A JAMB score alone doesn't tell you whether you'll be admitted. JambAdvisor weighs the same factors admission offices use:

Departmental Cut-Off

Historical 3-year score benchmarks set by individual university departments based on seat capacity.

Catchment Advantage

Geographical priority for candidates applying to federal universities located in their geopolitical zone.

Budget & Ownership Fit

Federal, state, and private tuition ranges narrow down which safe options are realistic for you.
