Topfaith University Cut-Off Mark for Mass Communication 2027/2028

Topfaith University has not published a cut-off mark for Mass Communication. The official minimum is 150, JAMB’s 2026 floor for universities. Topfaith’s admissions page asks only that you “meet cut-off marks in UTME in relevant subjects” and gives no number. Mass Communication holds full NUC accreditation to 2028, and tuition for 2026/2027 is ₦1,900,000 a session.

2027/2028 update: Topfaith University cut-off marks usually stay the same from one year to the next, so the figures on this page are what 2027/2028 candidates should plan with. They are based on JAMB’s 2026 national minimum of 150, because Topfaith has not published its own course cut-offs. If the 2027/2028 notice changes anything, we will update this page.

Below you will find what Topfaith has published, a safe target score (clearly marked as my advice), the UTME and O’level subjects from JAMB’s brochure, how Topfaith admits through its portal and JAMB CAPS, the 2026/2027 fees, and where Mass Communication stands with the regulators.

Topfaith Mass Communication cut-off: what has been published

So the only number you can treat as official is 150. Topfaith takes its students through JAMB, and JAMB will not let any university admit a 2026 candidate below that line. If a blog shows you a “Topfaith Mass Communication cut-off” of 180 or 200, ask where it came from: none of the figures I have seen cites a Topfaith document.

Mass Communication is one of Topfaith’s older programmes and has full NUC accreditation, but Topfaith has not published a departmental cut-off for it.

Safe target score for Mass Communication at Topfaith (my advice)

This is my judgement as an admissions adviser, built from how young private universities in Nigeria usually fill their places. It is not a Topfaith rule.

For the 2027 UTME I would aim for at least 180. Mass Communication is one of the most requested courses in Nigerian social science faculties, and strong English matters both for admission and for the course.

UTME subject combination and O’level for Mass Communication at Topfaith

Here is the trap. JAMB’s general O’level line for Mass Communication asks for English plus four Arts or Social Science credits and does not name Mathematics. Topfaith’s own admissions rule, though, requires credits in English and Mathematics for every course. So for Topfaith, a Mathematics credit is part of your five.

In the UTME, JAMB’s general line is any three Arts or Social Science subjects. UNILAG, Bowen and others add Literature in English as a must, and ABU puts Literature first too. Topfaith has no remark, but Literature, Government and CRS or Economics is a safe set that works almost everywhere.

How Topfaith screens Mass Communication applicants

Topfaith states that all its admissions go through JAMB. You apply online on the Topfaith portal, upload your documents, and choose Topfaith as your first choice on JAMB. The 2026/2027 notice does not publish a Post-UTME test, a test date, a form price or a scoring formula, so I cannot tell you whether Mass Communication applicants sit a paper test or are judged on UTME and O’level alone.

Worked example (illustrative)

With no published formula, the useful sum is the gap between your score, the 150 floor and my safe target of 180. These candidates are made up to show the method.

Take Iniobong, who scored 196 and has B2 in English, B3 in Literature, C4 in Mathematics, C5 in Government and B3 in CRS from one sitting.

1. Eligibility: 196 minus 150 = 46. Iniobong clears the JAMB floor by 46 marks.
2. Against my safe target: 196 minus 180 = 16. Iniobong sits 16 marks above the score I would call safe.
3. O’level check: English and Mathematics credits plus three Arts credits, one sitting.
4. What I would advise: apply early and accept quickly. She is above my safe line.

Kufre scored 177. 177 minus 150 = 27, so the score itself is enough to be considered. His UTME subjects are fine, but he has only a pass (D7) in Mathematics. Some universities accept that for Mass Communication; Topfaith’s rule asks for a credit, so he should resolve it before counting on Topfaith.

Your chances of getting Mass Communication at Topfaith

Topfaith is a young private university in Mkpatak, Essien Udim LGA. Its first students matriculated in May 2022, and it now lists 26 programmes on its 2026/2027 fees page. Private universities in Akwa Ibom draw far fewer UTME applicants than the University of Uyo, and fees screen out many families, so a candidate who clears 150 and has clean O’level results is usually in a stronger position at Topfaith than at a federal university with the same score.

Mass Communication draws a lot of interest, but Topfaith’s class is not competing with the volume at UNIUYO, which spreads communication across several separate degrees. A score above 165 with clean O’level grades gives you a fair chance.

How Topfaith compares with other Akwa Ibom universities

JAMB set 31 October 2026 as the 2026/2027 deadline for public universities; that date has now passed. Private universities, Topfaith included, have until 30 November 2026, so admissions at Topfaith can still move on CAPS this month.

How to apply for Mass Communication at Topfaith, step by step

1. Get your JAMB profile code: send NIN, a space and your 11-digit NIN to 55019 or 66019 from the phone line linked to your NIN.
2. Register the UTME correctly: choose Mass Communication with English, Literature in English, Government and CRS or Economics, and make Topfaith University your first choice. If you chose another school, do a JAMB change of institution at a JAMB CBT centre.
3. Upload your O’level to CAPS: do it at an accredited JAMB CBT centre as soon as your result is out. Check that English, Mathematics and your Arts or Social Science credits all show.
4. Apply on the Topfaith portal: open topfaith.edu.ng/application, click “Start Application”, fill the form and upload the documents it asks for.
5. Follow the screening instructions: Topfaith contacts applicants about the next step. If you hear nothing, write to admissions@topfaith.edu.ng with your JAMB number.
6. Accept on CAPS: log in at efacility.jamb.gov.ng, choose Check Admission Status and accept the offer. Our JAMB CAPS guide explains each status.
7. Pay the acceptance fee and register: the acceptance fee is ₦100,000 and is not refundable. Pay it and the ₦1,900,000 tuition only through channels Topfaith confirms, then print your JAMB admission letter.

Sources and updates

The application rules, the online portal and the contacts come from Topfaith’s admissions page; tuition and the ₦100,000 acceptance fee come from its fees page for 2026/2027 freshers (both checked 3 November 2026). The absence of a cut-off figure is confirmed by Myschool’s reprint of Topfaith’s 2026/2027 notice (20 May 2026). Subject requirements come from Myschool’s reprint of JAMB’s brochure page for Mass Communication, which carries no Topfaith remark. The NUC status comes from the NUC’s Accreditation Results 1990 to 2025 (uploaded September 2026), which lists Topfaith’s Accounting, Business Administration, Mass Communication, Computer Science, Software Engineering, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Criminology and Security Studies and Economics with full accreditation to 2028, and Petroleum and Gas, Computer, Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Law with full accreditation to 2029. Topfaith reported the result in an article dated 19 April 2026. The national minimum of 150 and the 30 November 2026 deadline for private universities come from the News Agency of Nigeria (11 May 2026). Comparison figures for other Akwa Ibom universities come from their own 2026/2027 notices or reprints, as labelled in the table. The safe target score and the worked example are my advice. This page will be updated if Topfaith publishes a cut-off for Mass Communication.

I am Jude Chinecherem, a final-year MBBS student at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. I know what it feels like to want an education your family cannot afford. When my parents could not pay for my schooling, I had to learn how to find scholarships and work the system out on my own, with nobody to guide me. I came out the other side, and now I share everything I learned so the next student does not have to figure it out alone. This is the advice I wish someone had given me back then.
