Aminu Saleh College of Education, Azare (ASCOEA) is a Bauchi State-owned college running two separate admission tracks for 2026/2027: NCE and a degree programme affiliated with the University of Maiduguri. The cut-off mark is different for each.

ASCOEA NCE Cut-off Mark
ASCOEA’s NCE cut-off mark for 2026/2027 is 100, matching JAMB’s national floor for colleges of education. The college’s admission screening exercise for NCE candidates is scheduled for August 3 to 7, 2026, at Chris Abutu Garuba Hall. You’ll need at least four relevant O’Level credits, including English Language and/or Mathematics, to be eligible.
ASCOEA Degree Programme Cut-off Mark
Candidates applying for the degree programme, which runs in affiliation with the University of Maiduguri, need a minimum UTME score of 150, the national floor for university-level admission. This is a separate application from the NCE track, so make sure you’re applying for the one you actually want.

ASCOEA hasn’t published a separate cut-off for individual NCE subject combinations this cycle, so the 100 mark applies across the board for that track.
