Universities run by the central government have a vast array of possibilities for educating students. All the Central Universities offer vast placement opportunities, and if candidates want to work after graduation, they have good packages to choose from.

How does the CUCET selection process work?

A candidate who has successfully attempted CUCET 2022 and cleared the exam has to attend a counselling session. All of the qualifying candidates are invited to this session, and seats are awarded on a merit-based system.

Counselling for CUCET happens individually at every Central University for the selected candidates. If the candidate’s name is on the counselling session’s list, he/she will be invited by the CUCET consortium. Then, on registering on the official website, the login credentials are given to the candidate. Candidates who are called for offline counselling must report to the University campus and attend the session.
