According to the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), a meeting on its 2015 policy will hold on July 14, 2015 to determine cut-off marks for admission of candidates into tertiary institutions.
This is contained in a statement issued by the Board’s Public Relations Officer, Fabian Benjamin, on Thursday July 2, 2015 in Lagos.
“The 2015 Policy Meeting which usually comes up with the cut-off point has been fixed for 14th July, 2015.
“This meeting defines the criteria for the year’s admissions into higher institutions,’’ it said.
The statement said that the cut-off points are arrived at after extensive deliberations with Vice Chancellors of universities, provosts of colleges of education, rectors of polytechnics, monotechnics as well as innovative enterprise institutions and other stakeholders.
It said that the meeting was usually held after the schools would have completed the Computer Based tests (CBT). The statement said that the CBT had assisted the board to fight against examination malpractice within the nation’s examination system.
