Profile
The cut-off mark for Metallurgical and Materials Engineering at Federal University, Gusau (FUGUS) in Zamfara State is an important benchmark for admission into this five-year UTME programme. Historically, cut-off marks for similar engineering courses in Nigerian federal universities fall within the 180–220 range, but the exact figure for each academic session is set by the university and JAMB. Prospective candidates should note that meeting the cut-off does not guarantee admission, as other factors like O’Level grades and post-UTME performance also apply.
