UMM has released its cut-off mark details for the 2026/2027 admission session. Candidates who listed the institution on JAMB should review these figures carefully before moving on to the rest of the admission process and other requirements.
Candidates who are still unsure where they stand should treat UMM’s figure as the starting point for everything else in the admission process. It is the number candidates need to check first, before any other admission requirement.

UMM Cut-off Mark for 2026/2027
JAMB’s 2026 policy meeting fixed 150 as the national floor for university admission, and that’s the number UMM has to respect for actual admission, whatever threshold it sets for opening an application. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
Reports suggest UMM’s screening portal accepts applications starting from a baseline of 140, but that’s below the current national floor and would only serve as an entry point to register, not a guarantee of admission at that score. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
Don’t take 140 as the real cut-off; the national floor of 150 is what matters for whether you can actually be admitted. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
You’ll also need at least five credit passes in relevant subjects from no more than two sittings in WAEC, NECO, or NABTEB, including English Language and Mathematics. Skipping or rushing this part of the process is one of the more common reasons admission gets delayed.

Why UMM’s Cutoff Is Just the Start
Clearing UMM‘s cut-off mark is the entry requirement, not the finish line. Candidates still need to complete every other step in the admission process to secure a place.
That is the part most candidates underestimate until it is too late to fix. UMM candidates should keep that in mind while the rest of the admission process plays out.
