UPCET Counselling 2024: Due to scrapping of UPCET exam, AKTU will not conduct UPCET counselling. The exam has been replaced with CUET UG and CUET PG. You need to participate in CUET counselling by appearing in the exam. But you should qualify the cut off marks of the institue you want to take admission for the UG or PG course. Also, NTA does not conduct CUET for admission to B.Tech courses. The counselling for B.Tech will be done through JEE Main score via UPTAC.
Candidates can also complete online willingness (freeze or float the seat). Candidates are allotted seats on the basis of merit and the availability of seats in their category. Once the seat is allotted to the candidate, no change in the Institution/ branch is admissible. Check UPCET Cut off
