On Question asked by student community
Hello,
Yes, you can get a reservation to study B Tech. through cuet exam as per your category. It is partially dependent on the university you will get admission.
Thank You.
The top government colleges offering B.Tech admission through the CUET exam in Delhi primarily include institutions under Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) and specific colleges within the University of Delhi (DU).
Here are the key government colleges that accept CUET scores for B.Tech:
Cluster Innovation Centre (CIC), University of Delhi: Offers B.Tech. in Information Technology & Mathematical Innovation, with admission based strictly on CUET scores, and it is known for its low fee structure.
Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi (DU): DU has also started admitting students to its B.Tech programs (like Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc.) via the CUET (and usually JEE Main).
Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU): While GGSIPU primarily uses JEE Main scores, some of its programs in the main campus and the GGSIPU East Delhi Campus accept CUET scores for admission, particularly for certain specializations.
It is important to check the specific course eligibility for each university, as highly ranked institutions in Delhi like Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT) and Delhi Technological University (DTU) rely more heavily on high JEE Main ranks for admission through JAC Delhi counselling, rather than CUET alone.
