Frequently Asked Questions
- How is the FUTO Nursing cut off mark determined?
The cut off mark is set annually by the university in line with JAMB policy, factoring in the number of applicants, available slots, and the overall performance of candidates in UTME and post-UTME screening. It is not a fixed number and can change yearly. - Where can I check the official current-year cut off mark for Nursing at FUTO?
The official cut off mark is published on the FUTO admissions portal (admission.futo.edu.ng) and the JAMB CAPS platform after the release of UTME results and post-UTME registration. Always rely on these sources rather than third-party sites. - What happens if my UTME score is below the FUTO Nursing cut off mark?
If your score is below the cut off, you cannot be considered for admission into Nursing at FUTO. You may consider changing your course or institution to a less competitive programme or applying through Direct Entry if you meet the O’Level and other requirements.
The exact FUTO Nursing cut off mark for the current admission cycle is determined solely by the university and JAMB. Visit the official JAMB CAPS and FUTO admissions website after the release of post-UTME results to confirm the latest figure. Stay updated to make informed decisions about your application.
