Frequently Asked Questions
- How is the cut-off mark for Mechanical Engineering at BSUAST determined?
The cut-off mark is set by the university’s admissions committee based on factors such as the number of applicants, the performance of candidates in UTME, and available slots. It is not a fixed number and may vary each year. - Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for Mechanical Engineering at BSUAST?
The official current-year cut-off mark is released on the BSUAST website (www.bsuast.edu.ng) and the JAMB CAPS portal. Candidates should monitor these platforms after the UTME results are published. - What happens if I score below the cut-off mark for Mechanical Engineering at BSUAST?
If your score is below the cut-off, you will not be offered admission into Mechanical Engineering. You may consider changing to a less competitive course at BSUAST or applying to other universities with lower cut-off marks.
To get the exact cut-off mark for the current academic session, always refer to the official JAMB website and the BSUAST admissions portal. These sources provide the most accurate and up-to-date information. Remember that meeting the cut-off does not guarantee admission, as other factors like O’Level requirements and post-UTME screening also apply.
