JEE Scores

With 77 percentile in JEE Main, your rank is around 2.5–3 lakh, which makes admission in IITs/NITs unlikely, but you have realistic chances in government engineering colleges in Uttar Pradesh through UPSEE/AKTU counseling and state quota seats.

Chandigarh University has a healthy and clear admission policy that weighs in your 12th board marks, JEE Main score and your performance in the CUCET in your quest for admission in the field of engineering. While the 12th marks are mainly used for basic eligibility purposes- you will only be considered for admission if you score high enough, but this is also factored in while deciding the overall merit and scholarship- your performance in the JEE Main is weighed more while allotting the students and determining scholarship, especially for the niche and competitive branches while you still need to write the CUCET for most students so that they can asses their subject knowledge and aptitude in a standardized and consistent manner. The JEE main rank is one where the student will have to appear for CUCET if their JEE main rank is below 100001, otherwise, students who score higher than 100001 can directly take admission along with the scholarships applicable on their score. This clearly demonstrates that the university values both consistent performance and a knack for competitive tests. Backed by a skilled faculty, state-of-the art facilities, industry integrated curriculum and top-notch placements, Chandigarh University provides the right platform for any student to thrive.
