Frequently Asked Questions

• How is the cut-off mark for Nursing at FUDMA determined?
  The cut-off mark is set by the university based on the number of applicants, available slots, and the general performance of candidates in the UTME. It is usually higher than the JAMB minimum because Nursing is a competitive course.
• Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for Nursing at FUDMA?
  The official figure is released on the FUDMA admissions portal (www.fudutsinma.edu.ng) and also published on the JAMB CAPS platform. Always confirm from these sources rather than third-party sites.
• What happens if I score below the FUDMA Nursing cut-off mark?
  If your UTME score is lower than the cut-off, you will not be considered for admission into Nursing at FUDMA. You may consider changing your course or institution through JAMB’s change of course/institution process to a less competitive programme.

Always verify the exact cut-off mark for the current admission year from the official JAMB brochure and FUDMA’s admissions website. Meeting the cut-off does not guarantee admission, as other factors like O’Level results and post-UTME screening also matter. Stay updated by checking the university portal regularly.
