The National Universities Commission ( NUC) has abolished the award of Pass Degree
in Nigerian Universities with effect from the 2013/ 2014 academic session.
This decision was made known by the Vice Chancellor of the Usmanu Danfodiyo
University, Sokoto, Prof. Abdullahi Zuru during the school's 2014/2015 matriculation
ceremony which held yesterday February 4th in Sokoto.
According to Prof Zuru, the grading system of students in the universities has

which was E-grade while the minimum class of grade to be earned by the
students will be now be Third Class,” he said.
