I have always informed candidates that scoring over the MTU JAMB cut-off score does not ensure automatic admission into the polytechnic; only after a successful internal screening exercise of all candidates can candidates be certain of their admission status.
Please keep in mind that only successful candidates who participated in the MTU internal screening process will be automatically admitted to their preferred course.

Candidates who wish to enroll in the university must have at least five (5) O’ level (SSCE) credits in Mathematics, English, Chemistry, Physics, and Biology with the relevant subject combinations in the 2025/2026 JAMB UTME Examination.
All MTU applicants will soon get information on the PUTME screening exercise’s date, place, and procedures. For more information, visit the school’s website at mtu.edu.ng.
Note: the qualifying applicants or candidates are urged to prepare the relevant documents for the next Post UTME Screening exercise.
How To Calculate MTU Aggregate Score
To calculate your Mountain Top University aggregate score, add your JAMB score to your Post UTME score and divide by two to get your average or aggregate score. For example, if your JAMB score is 160 and your Post UTME score is likewise 160, your average or aggregate score will be (160+160)/2 = 160.
