On Cutoffs
Q:   Can I get into Central University of Orissa, MBA with 70% in OJEE?
A: 

You have a good chance of getting an MBA with 70% in OJEE. But it is not sure. There's not much information on OJEE's acceptance rate for CUO's MBA programme, however it's typically used for engineering admissions in Odisha. In the selection process, it may be considered, but it does not carry as much weight as other considerations such as work experience or in-person interviews.

The average score distribution, total number of applications, and available seats are some of the variables that affect the cutoff scores for CUO's MBA programme every year. It's possible that this year's OJEE score of 70% won't be enough, unlike in years past. Inquire about the most recent cutoff trends and get clarification on the significance of OJEE results in the MBA admissions process by getting in touch with the CUO admissions office directly.

Q:   What are the cut-off marks for Central University of Odisha?
A: 

Central University of Odisha considers the CUET scores followed by counselling for admission to its various UG courses. To be eligible for admission to CUO, candidates are required to register and appear for CUET. In 2020, CUET closing cutoff for B.Ed programme was 55.5. 

Check CUET-PG Predictor to know you chance of getting your preferred college

Q:   What is the latest cutoff information for MBA at Central University of Orissa?
A: 

The latest cutoff for MBA is around 230-250. There are no specific programme pages or reports on the university website that provide prior or present cutoff scores in great detail."MBA cutoff" is another search term that returns very few results.Specific cutoff scores are frequently missing from the most recent entrance brochure, however downloading it might provide some basic information about qualifying requirements or the selection process.

For information on the most recent trends or cutoff dates, get in touch with the CUO admissions office directly through phone or email. They might be able to offer more detailed advice. Focus on meeting programme eligibility requirements and getting ready for the admission exam (typically CAT or CMAT for CUO MBA) rather than worrying too much about precise cutoffs.
