Will Class 12 marks have any weightage for undergraduate admissions?
UGC has not made it mandatory to include Class 12 marks for admissions, however, it depends on the universities if they want to include Class 12 marks in their admission process as one of the eligibility or merit criteria.
What will be the syllabus for the entrance exam?
UGC has not issued a new syllabus for CUET. All the questions will be based on the NCERT syllabus that students have studied in their Class 12. This has created debate among academicians. Many experts claim that having an exam based on NCERT will give an advantage to students who have studied from CBSE and state board students will be at a disadvantage.

The test will be conducted in 13 languages. These include Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Urdu, Assamese, Bengali, Punjabi, Odia, and English.
How many courses a student can apply in one go?

What will be the format of the CUET?
The entrance examination has been divided into two sessions. In session one, the student will have to appear for one language test (from 13 mandatory languages), two domain-specific papers, and a general test. However, a general test is not mandatory to give but some universities might include it in their eligibility criteria.
In session two, candidates will appear for four domain-specific tests and a language-specific paper (admission in a foreign language course).
What all domains are offered by UGC?
UGC is offering 27 domain subjects such as Accountancy/ Book Keeping, Biology/ Biological Studies/ Biotechnology, Business Studies, Chemistry, Computer Science/ Informatics Practices, Economics/ Business Economics, Engineering Graphics, Entrepreneurship, Geography, History, Home Science, Knowledge Tradition–Practices India, Legal Studies, Commercial Arts, Mathematics, Physical Education/ NCC, Physics, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, Teaching Aptitude, Agriculture, Mass Media/ Mass Communication, Anthropology, Fine Arts/ Visual Arts (Sculpture/ Painting), Performing Arts and Sanskrit.
What will be the syllabus for the general test?
