CCUK JAMB Cut-Off Mark 2026/2027
The 2026/2027 cut-off marks were published on June 30, 2026 by AbSApp Blog and by Allschool, and they follow the same pattern as the 2025/2026 list on MySchool.
| Programme Group | JAMB Cut-Off | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Science and Computing, Management and Social Sciences | 150 | Most programmes |
| Selected health programmes | 170 | Confirm your course |
| Selected health programmes | 180 | Confirm your course |
The sources we checked list the 170 and 180 groups without naming the exact programmes in every case, so confirm your course with the admission office before you apply. A cut-off score does not guarantee admission. Candidates are ranked and screened.

⚠️ Capital City University has warned parents and candidates about scammers during admission periods. Many online adverts list personal phone numbers for “admission officers”. Use only the official enquiry lines on the university’s own flyer, 0815 768 5073 or 0704 044 0406, and never pay into a personal account.
