Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti Cut Off Mark 2025/2026

The management of Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti has officially released its cut-off mark for the 2025/2026 academic session. This cut-off mark is one of the most critical requirements for gaining admission into the institution’s National Diploma (ND) programs. To be considered, candidates must meet the Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti cut-off mark alongside other essential admission criteria, such as relevant O’Level subject combinations.

2025/2026 Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti General Cut-Off Mark

For the 2025/2026 session, the general cut-off mark stands at 140. Any applicant who wishes to gain admission must have scored at least 140 in the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

Failure to reach this minimum score disqualifies the candidate from continuing with the admission process. Even if other requirements are met, a UTME score below 140 renders a candidate ineligible.
