UCEED Participating Colleges 2025: Seat Matrix OUT, Updated List of Colleges Accepting UCEED Scores

UCEED Participating Colleges 2025 Overview

IIT Bombay will announce an updated list of the UCEED participating colleges 2025, which will also go live on its admission portal with the release of the UCEED application form 2025. So far, six colleges have been confirmed to participate, including the addition of IIT Roorkee in the last edition of the test, offering as many as 225 seats into the B.Des program together. Admission to the B.Des program in these UCEED 2025 participating institutes will be based on the UCEED 2025 merit list.

One of the major differences between the UCEED participating colleges and result-sharing institutes is that the former will participate in the Joint Admission Process or Centralized Counselling organized by IIT Bombay. The UCEED 2025 counselling process for admissions at participating institutes will be done by the respective institutes themselves, and candidates have to apply separately with the obtained UCEED 2025 scores at these participating institutes. IIT Bombay is likely to conduct UCEED 2025 in the third week of January 2025.

How to Choose a Design College?

There are certain parameters that candidates should keep in mind before choosing a design college accepting UCEED 2025 scores. Some of the points are:

• Fee Structure: One of the most important points to consider while looking for a suitable college is the fee structure. While choosing a college, compare two or more colleges based on their fee structure.
• Placement: Placement is another important aspect a student should pay heed to while deciding the college. The ultimate achievement for every college student is to have a good workplace, so make sure you understand the placement criteria of the colleges you are selecting.
• Campus: A student should go through the pictures of the campus, or visit the college once, to get an idea of the campus infrastructure such as the state of the building, water availability, libraries, classrooms, labs, power supply, etc. A decent college will have its infrastructure in place.
• Faculty: A good faculty makes a lot of difference and it is a very important factor, which should be taken into consideration. Faculty is significant for offering the necessary guidance to the students and for that, a team of full-time and well-qualified faculty is necessary. So, choose a college which is renowned for its faculty.

Important Points to Remember While Selecting UCEED Participating Colleges 2025

A little bit of research should be done about the colleges by the students regarding the history of the college, and affiliation of the college before deciding.

• Candidates should make sure that they have some idea about the interview criteria once they get their UCEED scores.

• Every college has a cut-off list for the exams, so the candidates should know if their score has made it to the cut-off of their desired college or not.

• Candidates should have all the required documents while taking admission to a particular college. A lack of even one document can result in a candidate losing his/her seat.
