Entry Requirements
You need five (5) O'level credit passes (WASC/GCE/NECO/NABTEB, max 2 sittings) including English Language and Mathematics, plus a subject-specific combo per department (Nautical Science: Physics, Geography + 1 science; Marine Engineering: Physics, Chemistry, Technical Drawing/science; Electrical/Electronics: Physics, Chemistry + science; Maritime Transport & Business: Economics + a commerce/social-studies subject). Sit JAMB UTME (minimum 150) and make Maritime Academy of Nigeria, Oron your first choice, then pass MAN's own post-UTME screening (aptitude test, medical exam, physical fitness). Applicants must generally be unmarried and aged 16–21 (Nautical Science/Engineering tracks) or 16–25 (Maritime Transport & Business). For HND, you need an ND with minimum CGPA 2.50 (Lower Credit) plus one year of post-ND industrial training or cognate work experience. Cut-off figures (e.g. 175/160) circulating on aggregator sites are not confirmed on MAN's own site — treat them as unofficial until the school publishes its own.

The JAMB national minimum for the 2026/2027 session is 150. 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.
