FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC, OFFA [OFFAPOLY] RELEASES APPROVED DEPARTMENTAL CUTOFF MARK 2025/2026 (ND) ADMISSION

Good news to all candidates who chose the Federal Polytechnic, Offa (OFFAPOLY) as their first-choice institution during the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME)! The management of the polytechnic has officially released the approved departmental cut-off marks for admission into its National Diploma (ND) programmes for the 2025/2026 academic session.

This means you can now check if your UTME score meets the requirements for your chosen course before applying for the Post-UTME screening exercise.

📌 What is a Departmental Cut-Off Mark?

A departmental cut-off mark is the minimum JAMB UTME score a candidate must have to be eligible for admission into a specific course or department. OFFAPOLY uses these marks to determine which candidates can move forward in the admission process.

For example, if the cut-off mark for Mass Communication is 190, and you scored 180, you won’t be considered for that course. However, you can still apply for a course with a lower cut-off mark (if available) or change your course.

✅ General Eligibility Criteria

Before we go into the full list of cut-off marks by department, here are the basic things you need to know:

1. 🏫 Institution of Choice: Candidates must have chosen Federal Polytechnic, Offa as their first-choice institution during JAMB registration.

2. 📜 Minimum Score: You must have scored at least 120 in the 2025 UTME to be eligible to apply for any ND programme. However, some departments require higher scores.
