The federal government has pegged the cut-off points for the just concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) to 180 for Universities and 150 for polytechnics and colleges of education.
This was decided at the 4th combined policy committee meeting on admission to tertiary institutions held in Abuja yesterday.
180 has been the cut-off point for degree awarding institutions for some time now but representatives of other institutions argued that the cut-off point for polytechnics and others be reduced to 150 in order to attract students and was accepted and adopted.
Speaking at the meeting, Minister of Education, Prof. Ruqayyatu Rufai urged youths and students to enroll themselves into the innovative enterprise institutions and engage in technical and vocational education and training to help improve the economy of the nation.
She reminded institutions to adhere strictly to the admission time-table that has been prepared by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB).
The Registrar of JAMB, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde said by next year, the examination and its conduct would be improved upon.

Writer Chinua Achebe shunned Nigeria's corrupt politicians and twice turned down national honors, never fearing to criticize those he felt ruined his country. On Thursday, however, the lawmakers and the country's elite came to praise him.
Hundreds attended Achebe's funeral among the rolling hills of his eastern Nigeria home, a service that saw President Goodluck Jonathan literally hold up the writer's books. The gold plaque on his coffin simply called him the "eagle atop the Iroko tree" in his native Igbo language.
It was a fitting tribute to the respect Achebe carried among the people here and for many others around the world who knew him through his books, which many say is the first African voice heard in modern literature.
