Profile
The Nigeria Police Academy (NPA) sets a minimum cut-off mark for admission into its International Relations programme, which is a 4-year UTME or 3-year Direct Entry course. While the exact current-year figure must be confirmed from official JAMB or NPA sources, general historical cut-off ranges across Nigerian universities have been between 190 and 230. Candidates should note that meeting the cut-off does not guarantee admission, as other factors like screening performance also apply.

The cut-off mark is set by the university in consultation with JAMB, based on factors such as the number of applicants, available slots, and the overall performance of candidates in the UTME. It may vary each year. - Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for this course?
The official cut-off mark is published on the JAMB e-facility portal and the Nigeria Police Academy’s admissions website. 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 International Relations?
