Parents Protest Over 250 Cut-Off Mark At Unilag

Unilag

Aggrieved parents of students at the University of Lagos, Akoka, are staging a peaceful protest over the 250 cut-off mark placed by the institution for those seeking admission.

Daily Independent gathered that some of the parents said their grievance was centred on the school’s refusal to accept JAMB’s approved cut-off mark of 180 and imposing its own cut-off mark of 250 on the aspiring students.

Some of the parents who spoke insisted that the 250 mark was unacceptable, as it would disqualify their children from participating in the post-UTME screening that would determine their admission into UNILAG.
