The NIMCET 2026 cutoff will release after the NIMCET 2026 results will be announced, at nimcet.admissions.nic.in. The NIMCET exam 2026 will be conducted in June 2026. The opening and closing ranks for admissions will be available through the NIMCET cutoff 2026. However, it should be noted that making it through the NIMCET cutoff does not assure admission, but it increases the chance of admission for a candidate. While making the cutoff, the authorities make different considerations regarding the entrance exam and admission procedure. The NIMCET 2026 cutoff is different based on the category and college chosen by the candidates. At the time of allotment, the NIMCET 2026 rank secured by the candidates, their preference, category, and seat availability will also be considered.
