CUET UG DU Cutoff 2026 Live Updates: Course & college-wise Cutoff Prediction; Previous Years' TrendsKey Event
CUET UG DU Expected Cutoff 2026: The CUET UG 2026 test is being held from May 11 to 31, with 4-5 lakh students aspiring to take admission in DU, paying close attention to anticipated DU cutoff patterns in some of the most sought-after courses offered by the university. In recent years, the DU cutoffs via CUET UG have always been highly competitive, particularly for courses like B.Com (Hons), Economics (Hons), Political Science (Hons), Psychology (Hons), and Computer Science.
Admissions are based on the CUET score out of 800, and those who have scored over 750 have generally been able to get admission opportunities in reputed DU colleges under the General quota. But for top North Campus colleges and excellent commerce courses, the Round 1 cutoff has often surpassed 790-800.
For the 2026 admission cycle, cut-off marks will be higher for the streams of commerce, humanities, and management-based courses owing to increased competition and improved CUET preparation by candidates. In the general category, students may require a score of 770+ marks to secure admission in top universities and preferred courses, whereas OBC, SC, ST, and EWS categories are likely to see relatively lower closing scores depending on seat availability and programme demand.
Admissions will proceed via the Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) according to the CUET UG results. It is necessary for the candidates to take CUET UG in 2026 first, after which they need to register for the CSAS counselling and choice filling.
