The 2026/2027 cut-off mark picture for CCU is now out. Candidates need this information before they can tell whether they are in contention for a place, and before any screening exercise starts.
Candidates who are still unsure where they stand should treat CCU’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.
JAMB’s National Minimum for Universities
JAMB’s 2026 policy meeting kept 150 as the national floor for university admission, and CCU, like every other Nigerian university, can’t admit below that. Pages online quote CCU’s own figure anywhere from 140 to 180 depending on the source, with some adding a separate Post-UTME cut-off on top.
That kind of spread usually means nobody’s actually looking at a current, official CCU release, just recycling old numbers or guessing. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle. That detail stays the same for every candidate who applies through JAMB this cycle.
Treat 150 as the floor you need to clear, and expect Nursing, Radiography, and other health-related courses to ask for considerably more, since that’s been the pattern at CCU in past sessions. We’ll update this page with CCU’s own figure once it’s confirmed through the university’s admissions office.

Clearing the cut-off mark at CCU does not finish the admission process on its own. Candidates still need to complete screening, document verification, and any departmental requirement before a place is confirmed.
CCU reviews every candidate against the same baseline figure first, before anything else about an application is considered. That order does not change from one candidate to the next.
Reading CCU’s Cut-Off Mark Correctly
The cut-off mark is CCU‘s way of narrowing the field. Candidates who clear it still have real work left before admission is confirmed.
Nothing about the rest of the process gets easier just because this figure is cleared. CCU candidates should keep that in mind while the rest of the admission process plays out.
