Candidates can now apply for biannual admissions through CUET UG scores in July/August and January/February. This policy will give CUET accepting universities the flexibility to make decisions on admissions based on the faculty and infrastructure available. Earlier, students were admitted in a single cycle – July/August for UG programmes. This policy will benefit the candidates who have missed the admissions in the July/August session and will not waste the full academic year.
