Parameters for NIRF Ranking 2025

The NIRF ranking is evaluated based on various parameters. Candidates can check the NIRF parameters below:

  • Research and Professional Practice (RP): This area of study focuses on an organisation's research initiatives, specifically the quantity and calibre of publications produced. These parameters are determined through the use of metrics for publication score and quality, respectively.

  • Outreach and Inclusivity (OI): An institution's level of outreach and inclusivity (OI) is an indication of how successfully it integrates other groups. The percentage of students from different states or countries is checked by Regional Diversity. Universities pay attention to financially and socially disadvantaged students as well as students who fall under PwD categories. Women Diversity assesses the proportion of female students.

  • Outcomes of Graduation (GO): The number of students who successfully complete their degrees is measured by this factor. The Metric for University Examinations assesses students' exam performance. The number of Ph.D. graduates is tracked by the Metric for Number of Ph.D. Students Graduated.

  • Peer perception (PR): This refers to the academic perceptions that employers and students have of the university. It represents the standing the institution enjoys among other educational institutions and businesses, which influences its standing in both academic and professional circles.

  • Teaching, Learning & Resources (TLR): This is undoubtedly the NIRF ranking system's most significant criterion. The standard of education that the schools offer is the basis for their evaluation. The number of registered students, including PhD students, and the faculty-to-student ratio—which establishes how much attention each student receives—are some of the determining elements in this criteria. The financial resources that the organisation has available for system improvement are another crucial component.

  • Contact the University Helpline or Admission Cell immediately. Explain your problem in detail on the helpline number or email (admissions@cumail.in) given on the official website of Chandigarh University.
  • Tell them that it was a genuine mistake during form-filling and you want to apply for regular B.E./B.Tech CS.

Hello there,

Yes, you can apply for Hindi Honours or B.A. with Hindi, History, and Political Science through CUET even if you got RT in English but your overall result is Pass . CUET eligibility depends on your overall pass status and the specific requirements of the university you are applying to.

Since you are interested in Hindi and related subjects, focus on preparing well for the Hindi , History , and Political Science sections in CUET. Some universities may not consider RT in a particular subject if your overall result is pass, but it's better to check the detailed eligibility criteria of the specific university you are applying to.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

If you didn’t have Maths in Class 12 , you generally can’t choose it as a subject in CUET . The exam usually requires you to pick subjects you studied in 12th grade for the domain-specific tests.

However, you can still apply for many courses that don’t require Maths —just check the eligibility criteria for the universities you’re interested in. It’s always a good idea to review the specific requirements before selecting your subjects.

You should check on the official site for more information. CUET (https://cuet.nta.nic.in/)
