CUET UG 2026: Application Form (Started), Exam Date, Syllabus, Pattern, Colleges, Cutoff

VVT Coaching Chennai – Ranked #1 Best NEET&JEE Coaching Centre by Times Now!

CUET UG 2026 is now live and for many students, this one exam decides access to top universities and highly demanded UG programs.

But CUET isn’t just about “studying chapters.” It’s a process-heavy exam cycle:
Application → Correction → City Intimation → Admit Card → CBT → Answer Key → Result → University Admissions.

Miss one step or make one avoidable form mistake, and your year can get delayed even if your preparation is strong. This guide gives you the complete CUET UG 2026 picture in a clean, student-friendly flow, along with a practical strategy and how VVT Coaching supports students through every stage.

CUET UG 2026 Highlights (Table — unchanged)

CUET UG 2026 Important Dates You Must Track

CUET UG 2026 has a fixed application and correction timeline and this is where most students slip.

• Application window: 03 January 2026 to 30 January 2026 (up to 11:50 PM)
• Last date for fee payment: 31 January 2026 (up to 11:50 PM)
• Correction window: 02 February to 04 February 2026 (up to 11:50 PM)
• Exam window (tentative): 11 May to 31 May 2026
• City intimation & Admit card: To be announced

Simple rule: Don’t wait for the last day. The last 48 hours are where payment delays, server load, and upload errors happen the most.

CUET 2026 Registration Process (No Confusion, No Missed Steps)

The form itself is easy, the mistakes happen due to rush.

1. Create your account and generate your application number
2. Fill personal + academic details carefully (spelling must match your certificates)
3. Select subjects (choose based on your target university/program requirements)
4. Choose exam cities smartly (travel + comfort matters)
5. Upload photo/signature as per instructions
6. Pay fee and download the confirmation page immediately

Must-do: Save the confirmation page as a PDF and keep a screenshot of payment success.

CUET UG 2026 Eligibility Criteria (Table — unchanged)

Important clarity: While you can appear for CUET, admission does not happen automatically.
Instead, it depends on each university’s specific program rules — including subject mapping, minimum eligibility requirements, and seat availability.
Therefore, choosing your CUET subjects strategically is not optional; it directly determines your admission chances.

CUET UG 2026 Exam Pattern (Table — unchanged)

Marking Scheme (This decides your score jump)

• +5 for every correct answer
• -1 for every wrong answer
• 0 for unanswered

This makes CUET a “smart attempt” exam blind guessing can drop your score quickly.

The Most Important Strategy: Subject Selection (This Impacts Cut-Off More Than People Think)

Students often make two mistakes:

• They choose subjects emotionally (“I’ll pick more so I have more chances”)
• They choose subjects randomly (“I’ll decide later”)

The smarter approach:

• Choose subjects that your target universities accept for your intended course
• Choose subjects where you can score high with speed and accuracy
• Don’t overload beyond what you can revise repeatedly before May

Because CUET rewards:

• strong basics (especially in domains)
• fast reading + option elimination
• consistent timed practice (60 minutes mindset)

Colleges & Admission Process: How CUET Score Becomes a Seat

CUET is the entrance test. Admission happens after results through university portals.

After the exam, the journey usually goes like this:

1. Scorecard released
2. Universities open UG admission portals
3. You register separately for each university you want
4. You submit CUET score + documents
5. University releases course-wise cut-offs / merit lists in rounds
6. You accept the seat and complete fee + verification within deadlines

Key point: There is no single “one-button counselling” for all universities. Your seat depends on how carefully you follow each university’s admission rounds.

Cut-Off: What It Really Means (And How to Use It Correctly)

CUET cut-offs vary based on:

• program demand
• category
• number of seats
• number of applicants
• university’s round system

So the best way to prepare is not “chase random cut-off predictions,” but to build a score buffer by:

• maximizing accuracy
• reducing negative marking
• improving speed per section
• practising in exam-like time blocks

A Simple Preparation Plan That Actually Works

If you want a stable plan (especially if you’re balancing boards too), follow this:

Daily (60–90 minutes):

• 30–40 minutes: Domain practice (NCERT-style clarity + MCQs)
• 20 minutes: Language practice (reading speed + vocab)
• 20–30 minutes: General test practice (reasoning + quant)

Weekly:

• 2 section mocks + 1 full mock
• Deep analysis (not just scores):
  • Which question types waste time?
  • Where do silly mistakes repeat?
  • Which topic keeps pulling you down?

This is how rank improvements actually happen.

How VVT Coaching Helps You Crack CUET UG 2026 (Not Just “Prepare”)

1) Error Exams — Stop Repeating the Same Mistakes!

Most CUET students don’t lose marks because of a lack of syllabus knowledge.
Instead, they lose marks due to misreading questions, panic-driven guessing, poor time management, and repeated silly errors.

That’s exactly where VVT’s Error Exams make the difference.
By converting your wrong and skipped questions into personalised practice sets, these exams help you fix mistakes at the root. As a result, the same errors stop repeating — and this is where real, visible score jumps happen.

2) AI-Powered Mock Tests & Smart Analytics – Improvement With Proof!

A normal mock test says: “Score: 162.” That’s not enough.

VVT’s analytics shows:
topic-wise weak zones, time spent per question, accuracy drop patterns under pressure, and repeated mistake behaviour,  so your improvement becomes measurable and faster.

3) Personalised Guidance — Because Subject Choice + Strategy Is Personal!

Two students with the same syllabus can have very different CUET outcomes depending on:
subject selection, target universities, and revision structure.

With mentor-led guidance, students get:
weekly score tracking, revision priority planning, weak-topic fixing without panic, and accountability till exam day.

4) Remedy Classes — Targeted Fix Sessions Before Weakness Becomes a Habit!

Instead of re-teaching everything, Remedy Classes focus only on the concepts where marks leak  followed by mini-tests to confirm improvement.
