Cross River State College Of Education Akamkpa: Courses, Cut-off & Admission (2026/2027)
Updated: 24 August 2026 · By the SchoolNews Education Desk
Cross River State College Of Education Akamkpa (COEAKAMKPA) is a college of education located in Akamkpa, Cross River, established in 2008. It offers the 11 programmes listed below. The JAMB national minimum for the 2026/2027 session is 100 — the college's own entrance exam and departmental cut-offs may be higher, so confirm with the school.
⚠ A post on an unrelated forum site (aplar.org) advertised a "2026/2027 UEE Akamkpa admission/direct-entry form" with a phone number urging students to "call to apply" outside any official channel — a classic fee-scam pattern. Never pay any individual or WhatsApp/phone "agent" claiming to sell Cross River State College of Education Akamkpa forms; use only the college's own site (crs-coeakamkpa.edu.ng) or its published phone/email, and confirm any figure with the school before paying.

The JAMB national minimum for the 2026/2027 session is 100. This is the lowest score to be considered; the college also runs its own entrance examination, and departments frequently set higher cut-offs, so always confirm the current mark for your course with the school.
How to Apply
Apply through the college's official site or by contacting the school directly at crs-coeakamkpa.edu.ng, or via JAMB CAPS where applicable for degree-affiliated programmes. No self-service online application portal was found on the homepage, so confirm the current session's application route by phone or email before making any payment.
Stay safe: never pay an agent or a "form seller" for admission. Apply and pay only through the college's official channels — verify by phone or email first.
