Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic (NUBAPOLY) follows JAMB’s national floor for polytechnics for the 2026/2027 academic session. NUBAPOLY’s cut-off mark is based on merit and catchment area benefits.
The application form is open to every applicant who meets the confirmed cut-off mark of 100 in JAMB, and applicants should note that a higher JAMB score gives them a higher advantage.

Candidates must also meet the required cut-off mark for the school and the desired department.
Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic is a state polytechnic located in Zaria, Kaduna State. The school has proven to be fairly competitive when it comes to giving out admissions to its candidates.
NUBAPOLY 2026/2027 UTME Merit Admission Cut-off Marks
100 is the confirmed national floor and applies across NUBAPOLY’s ND programmes for 2026/2027. An older figure of 140 circulated uniformly across courses on this page before; we can’t verify that NUBAPOLY still screens at that level, so 100 is what we can stand behind for every course below:
| COURSES | CUT OFF POINT |
| Accounting | 100 |
| Agricultural Engineering / Technology | 100 |
| Agricultural Technology | 100 |
| Architectural Technology | 100 |
| Banking and Finance | 100 |
| Building Technology | 100 |
| Business Administration and Management | 100 |
| Chemical Engineering Technology | 100 |
| Computer Engineering | 100 |
| Computer Science | 100 |
| Electrical / Electronic Engineering | 100 |
| Estate Management and Valuation | 100 |
| Food Technology | 100 |
| Forestry Technology | 100 |
| Mass Communication | 100 |
| Mechanical Engineering Technology | 100 |
| Office Technology and Management | 100 |
| Public Administration | 100 |
| Quantity Surveying | 100 |
| Science Laboratory Technology | 100 |
| Statistics | 100 |
| Urban and Regional Planning | 100 |
NUBAPOLY’s own Post-UTME screening threshold has, in practice, often run higher than the national floor for competitive ND courses (such as Computer Engineering or Mass Communication). We don’t have a reliably current figure for that threshold, so aim comfortably above 100 if you’re targeting a popular course.
