Profile
The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) sets a specific cut-off mark for admission into its Political Science programme each academic session. While the exact figure varies annually based on factors such as the number of applicants and overall performance, the general JAMB cut-off for Nigerian universities has historically ranged between 180 and 220. Prospective candidates should note that meeting the cut-off mark does not guarantee admission, as other criteria like O’Level requirements and post-UTME screening also apply.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How is the FUNAAB Political Science cut-off mark determined?
The cut-off mark is set by the university’s admissions committee based on JAMB’s recommended minimum, the number of applicants, and the academic performance of candidates in that year’s UTME. It may also consider the department’s capacity and overall competition. - Where can I check the official current-year cut-off mark for Political Science at FUNAAB?
The official cut-off mark is published on the FUNAAB website (www.unaab.edu.ng) and the JAMB portal (www.jamb.gov.ng) after the release of UTME results. Candidates should always verify from these sources to avoid misinformation. - What happens if I score below the FUNAAB Political Science cut-off mark?
If your score is lower than the set cut-off, you will not be considered for admission into Political Science at FUNAAB. You may consider changing your institution or course to one with a lower cut-off during JAMB’s change-of-course/institution window.
Meeting the cut-off mark is an important first step, but always confirm the exact current-year figure from FUNAAB’s official admission portal or JAMB’s website. Stay updated with the university’s admission calendar to ensure you complete all required processes on time.
