Skyline University Kano Post UTME Form 2026
Skyline University Kano Post UTME
Skyline University Nigeria — SUN — has confirmed that its 2026/2027 undergraduate Post UTME and Direct Entry admission form to register apply with us here is currently active. Skyline University is a private institution with a history that runs deeper than its Nigerian presence — it grew out of Skyline University College established in the United Arab Emirates in 1990, and the Nigerian campus was officially established in Kano in 2018 with NUC accreditation secured in 2022. The university holds the distinction of being the first private university in Kano State and operates from its distinctive 15-storey building at No 2 Zaria Road, opposite Old Kano-Line Bus Stop, Kano, making it one of the more visually distinctive private university campuses in Northern Nigeria.
What Is the Cut Off Mark for Skyline University?
The JAMB cut off mark for Skyline University for the 2026/2027 session is 150 for most programmes. Based on the most recent verified institutional information, the university requires candidates to score a minimum of 150 in UTME and have this result forwarded to SUN by JAMB. The university accepts both first and second choice candidates — this makes SUN more flexible than most private universities that only admit first-choice candidates. Candidates who scored as low as 140 in previous sessions were also considered based on earlier cut off information, so the exact 2026/2027 threshold should be verified from the official portal since the cut off mark is reviewed each session.
