Admission to only 20 courses through CUET this year: Jamia University

From next year all admission to undergraduate courses in university would be taken through CUET

Jamia Millia Islamia will only accept the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) UG scores for admissions to 20 courses. For this, candidates have to fill out both CUET and Jamia’s application forms.

Last year, the university accepted CUET scores for admissions to only 10 courses.

However, from next year all admission to undergraduate courses in university would be taken through CUET. “We have informed the UGC about it,” JMI Registrar Nazim Husain Al-Jafri told PTI. The university has no plans to take up CUET PG for admissions from next year as well.
