Rivers State University, once called RSUST, has rolled out the cut-off marks for its coming academic year.

What This Means for Aspirants
For those aiming for Medicine and Surgery, the bar sits high at 71, while courses like Economics and Marketing sit lower, around the mid-thirties. It is a mixed bag, some doors swing open wide, others barely budge.
The numbers are more than figures, they decide who sits in lecture halls next year. For some students, it will be a dream come true. For others, a sign to try again. That is how the system works, sometimes harsh, sometimes fair.
