IIITH UGEE cutoff 2026 was 56 for the OBC AI category. This cutoff rank was for the BTech+ MS (by Research) in Computer Science and Engineering programme. So, OBC AI category candidates need to attain a rank of 56 to be qualified for admission.
Admission in 2026 was closed after the first round itself. In 2025 and 2024, the admissions for the same course and category were also closed in the first round too, with the closing ranks of 62 and 53, respectively. As seen from these ranks, we can say that the admission has been fluctuating.

For the linguistics portion, the depth you go depends on the exam's design. Since most competitive entrance tests (like CUET, BBA/BCom entrances, or even nursing/B.Ed related papers) treat linguistics as a language proficiency + applied grammar section, here's a structured way to decide:
How Deep to Prepare
Pattern-Based Prep (PYQs):
- Most exams ask memory-based, factual, and applied questions (synonyms, antonyms, sentence correction, comprehension, figures of speech).
- Practicing previous year papers (PYQs) helps you spot recurring question types and difficulty levels.
- This is usually sufficient for exams where linguistics is a support

| Scenario | Priority | Recommended Action |
| Want to stay in tech/coding | Branch | Take CSE/IT in a Tier-2/3 college over Civil in a Tier-1 college. |
| Aiming for non-tech roles | College | Take any branch in a Top-Tier college for the brand and network. |
| Confused about career | College | Go for the best possible brand; it gives you 4 years to explore. |

No, it's basically not possible.
The 5-year dual degree through UGEE (like at IIIT Hyderabad) has a completely separate admission process. If you join through JEE Main (B.Tech), you can't later switch into the UGEE dual-degree program.

No, despite being a "Research Aptitude" test, the computer-based format only supports objective types (MCQs) and numerical entries. There are no descriptive based questions in the IIITH UGEE exam.

The SUPR section is comparable to JEE Main, but REAP section is considered challenging as it requires creative thinking and "out-of-box" problem solving. It can be compared to the Olympiad level questions.

No, physical or on-screen calculators are strictly prohibited in both sections.

Yes, in REAP section there can be questions on linguistics puzzles testing pattern recognition in unfamiliar languages. These questions do not require prior knowledge of the language, only logical deduction skills.
