HUKPOLY is admitting on a cut-off mark of 100 for the 2026/2027 session. Anyone who listed the institution on JAMB should check their score against this figure before planning the rest of the application.
Candidates who are still unsure where they stand should treat HUKPOLY’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.
What’s Actually Confirmed
JAMB’s 2026 policy meeting set the national floor for polytechnic admission at 100 for 2026/2027. That’s the baseline every ND programme at HUKPOLY has to respect. We couldn’t reach HUKPOLY’s own site to confirm a current departmental figure, so treat anything more specific with some caution.
A flat 140 across every single department, which is what this page used to list, from Accountancy to Welding and Fabrication Technology, isn’t how HUKPOLY has actually set cut-offs in reported cycles.
Multiple sources describe a tiered structure instead: a general floor for standard ND courses, a higher bar for competitive programmes like Computer Science, Science Laboratory Technology, Mass Communication, and Civil Engineering, and a separate, higher benchmark for degree programmes HUKPOLY runs in affiliation with Federal University of Technology, Minna (FUTMINNA).
We haven’t been able to verify the exact numbers for 2026/2027 against HUKPOLY’s own portal, so we’re not repeating them here as confirmed figures.
If you scored 100 or above, you’re within the national floor. For your specific department, especially if it’s one of the competitive ones or a FUTMINNA-affiliated degree course, confirm directly with HUKPOLY’s admissions office before you count on a number you saw elsewhere.
Candidates need at least 5 O’Level credit passes, including Mathematics and English, in not more than two sittings, and HUKPOLY screens both first and second-choice candidates.

HUKPOLY uses its cut-off mark to set the floor for consideration, not the ceiling for admission. Everything after that point still matters.
