Abubakar Tatari Ali Polytechnic (ATAPOLY), Bauchi, has released its cut-off mark for 2026/2027. ATAPOLY accepts and screens all candidates who score at or above the stated cut-off marks.

Candidates aspiring to be admitted into ATAPOLY must meet specific criteria to study the course of their choice. The list of criteria includes meeting the required cut-off mark for the school and the course or department itself.

Courses/Departments In ATAPOLY With Their Cut-off Marks
ATAPOLY’s ND cut-off mark isn’t completely flat across every course. The general 120 covers most ND programmes, but a few run higher: Science Laboratory Technology, a competitive course, has been reported around 140 and above, Computer Science sits between 130 and 140, and Statistics and Geological Technology are around 120 and above.
This page previously showed three different, contradictory figures in the same breath, 120, 150, and 180, for what was described as a single flat cut-off. That was a mistake. The 150 and 180 figures weren’t ND cut-offs at all, they’re closer to what ATAPOLY’s degree programmes require.
ATAPOLY also runs B.Tech and B.Sc degree programmes in affiliation with Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU), and those carry a noticeably higher cut-off mark, typically in the 160 to 180 range, reflecting university-level admission standards rather than the ND floor. We couldn’t pull a fresh confirmation of either the departmental ND figures or the degree-affiliate figures directly from ATAPOLY’s own site, so confirm your specific programme with the admissions office before applying.
Conclusion
Now that you know the cut-off mark picture for ATAPOLY, confirm your specific programme’s figure with admissions and prepare well to meet it.
