Maybe you’ve been refreshing your browser every morning, hoping for a new update. Maybe you’ve been praying silently at night, asking God to just let you make the cut this time. If that sounds like you, you’re not alone. At Trendingschoolnews, we know what it feels like to live in the waiting; to be unsure of what comes next. We also know how one single piece of news can change everything.
That news is here. Plateau State University (PLASU) has officially released the approved departmental admission cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 academic session. This information will help you understand your chances and make the next best move toward securing admission into one of Nigeria’s fast-growing state universities.
PLASU 2025/2026 Admission Cut-Off Marks Are Now Out
The management of Plateau State University (PLASU), Bokkos, has officially published the approved departmental cut-off marks for the 2025/2026 undergraduate admissions. These cut-off marks determine the minimum scores required for admission into various departments and are crucial for all candidates who sat for the 2025 UTME and are hoping to study at PLASU.
If PLASU is your first choice or you’re planning a change of institution, now is the time to get serious. Your performance in the UTME and, in some cases, post-UTME screening will be weighed against these cut-off marks.
Why Departmental Cut-Off Marks Matter More Than Ever
Too often, students focus solely on their overall JAMB score without realizing that each department has its own internal benchmark. While PLASU’s general admission cut-off might be 160, most departments have their own higher cut-off marks and this is what determines your actual eligibility.
Whether you’re aiming for Law, Mass Communication, Political Science, Biochemistry, or Economics, knowing the specific departmental cut-off gives you an edge. It also helps you prepare better for the next stage: screening and possible post-UTME (if conducted).
Full List of PLASU 2025/2026 Departmental Cut-Off Marks
The table of departmental cut-off marks has now been released by the university. It contains detailed information across faculties from Social Sciences to Natural Sciences, Arts, and Management. Every candidate is strongly advised to obtain and study the official list carefully.

What to Do If You Don’t Meet the Cut-Off
If your score is just below your chosen department’s cut-off mark, don’t panic. This is not the end. Many students find themselves in this position and still go on to secure admission through:
- Changing course to one with a lower cut-off
- Switching departments after gaining admission
- Applying to related programmes in affiliated institutions
- Seeking direct entry options (especially if you have diploma or NCE qualifications)
At EduJet, we specialize in helping students navigate these complex decisions. You have options, and we’re here to help you explore them.
Real Talk: What This Means for You
If your name isn’t on the merit list yet, it doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It just means you need to move smartly. Use this new information to re-strategize. If your score meets or exceeds your department’s cut-off, congratulations you’re one step closer to PLASU admission. Now prepare for screening.
But if your score falls short, remember: you’re not stuck. This is not a dead end. It’s just a redirection and the road still leads forward.
Conclusion
At Trendingschoolnews, we believe every Nigerian student deserves a fair shot at higher education, whether you’re from Jos, Lagos, Kano, or Enugu. PLASU has made its move. Now it’s your turn. Whether you’re celebrating, recalculating, or still figuring things out, you’re not doing it alone.
Remember this: Admission into university is not just about your score; it’s about knowing what to do with the information you have. You’re closer than you think. Let’s move together.
