About CUET
Introduced by the University Grants Commission (UGC), CUET is designed to streamline admissions across central, state, private, and deemed universities in India. It serves as a single-window entrance exam for both UG and PG programmes.
The CUET (UG) 2025 exam is tentatively scheduled from May 8 to June 1, 2025. More details regarding examination centres and admit card releases will be announced soon.
This orientation is a key step in building a strong academic support system for students and ensuring that they receive well-informed guidance while planning their higher education journey.
