Frequently Asked Questions
- How is the cut-off mark for Dentistry and Dental Surgery at NOUN determined?
The cut-off mark is set by JAMB in conjunction with NOUN’s admission policy, considering the UTME scores of all applicants, O’Level results, and the number of available slots. It is not a fixed number and may change yearly. - Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for this programme?
The official cut-off mark is published on the JAMB CAPS portal and on NOUN’s official website or admission bulletin. Always refer to these sources for the most accurate and up-to-date figure. - What happens if my UTME score is below the cut-off mark for Dentistry and Dental Surgery?
Candidates who score below the cut-off may consider alternative courses within NOUN or wait for the supplementary admission list, if available. However, admission into Dentistry is highly competitive, so meeting the cut-off does not guarantee a slot.
