CUSTECH Cut Off Mark 2026/2027
If you are aiming for CUSTECH Osara—located in the peaceful town of Osara, Kogi State—you are choosing a university designed for the future. Established to focus on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), CUSTECH is rapidly becoming a hub for tech-savvy students. Below are the admission stats you need to target for the upcoming 2026/2027 academic year.
CUSTECH JAMB Cut Off Mark for All Courses
The school management has officially set the CUSTECH JAMB cut-off mark for the 2026/2027 academic session at 140.
Important Reality Check:
-
The 140 Benchmark: This is the minimum score required to be eligible for the Post-UTME screening. If you scored 140, you can apply for most Science, Agriculture, and Education courses.
-
The “Professional” Benchmark: For competitive courses like Medicine, Law, Nursing, and Cyber Security, a score of 140 is merely a “gate pass.” To be safe on the merit list, you should aim for 200 to 240+.
-
First Choice Policy: CUSTECH is strictly for candidates who chose it as their First Choice. If you chose them as your second choice, you must do a Change of Institution on JAMB CAPS immediately.
