Kebbi State University departmental cut-off mark
The Kebbi State University departmental cut-off mark is the official benchmark score set to process admission for each course. This cut-off mark is decided by the management of each faculty after the successful conclusion of the institution’s POST UTME. Meanwhile, the mark is determined by the performance of students after the examination or screening. Candidates should note that not all school releases cut off marks to process admission after the conclusion of the Post UTME or screening.
This article will be updated once the management of the Kebbi State University (KSUSTA) releases the cut-off mark that will be used in processing 2026/2027 admission.
How to calculate your screening score
Every aspirant candidate who participated in the Kebbi State University Post UTME / Screening must know how to calculate their aggregate score for confirmation. Follow the simple steps below to calculate your screening score
- Divide your JAMB score by 8
- Divide your post utme score by 2
- After which you add both of them together.
