If you belong to the SC category and want admission through CUET counselling into a private college, given below are some possibilities for you to consider:

  • Students from SC/ST categories generally pay reduced fees for CUET exam itself compared to the general category. For example, the CUET 2025 exam fee for SC/ST candidates is lower (around INR 800 for the base fee and INR 350 per subject).
  • CUET counselling itself is a seat allocation and admission process based on your CUET score and eligibility criteria set by each participating university or college. The counselling process does not directly provide fee reduction or waivers for private college tuition fees.
  • Most private colleges do not automatically provide fee discounts or scholarships specifically for SC students unless explicitly mentioned in their admission brochure or policies. Therefore, simply being an SC candidate and going through CUET 2025 counselling does not guarantee a reduction in tuition fees at private colleges.
  • You can apply for scholarships or fee waiver schemes offered by the government or other designated authorities for SC students. These scholarships are separate from CUET counselling and require submission of relevant caste and income certificates. Some private colleges may also accept these scholarships if you provide the necessary documents on time.
