Dr. Mansur provided additional guidelines for the Post-UTME screening process: "Candidates should ensure that they have all necessary documents ready for submission, including their JAMB result slip, O’Level results, birth certificate, and state of origin certificate. It is crucial to adhere to the deadlines and instructions provided on the KASU admission portal."

Importance of Meeting the Cut-Off Marks

Meeting the cut-off mark is a significant step in the admission process, but it does not guarantee admission. Other factors, such as the performance in the Post-UTME screening and the availability of spaces in the chosen program, also play a crucial role.

"While achieving the cut-off mark is essential, candidates must also excel in the Post-UTME screening and meet other admission criteria set by the university. We are committed to a fair and transparent admission process," Dr. Mansur emphasized.

Conclusion

The release of the cut-off marks has been met with anticipation and relief by many prospective students. It marks a crucial step in their journey towards securing a place at Kaduna State University, one of Nigeria's leading institutions of higher learning.
