The Common University Entrance Test, CUET, will be held twice a year, beginning next year or academic session 2023. As per the sources, the CUET exam will become a two-time opportunity for students wishing to take the exam for UG admissions to Central Universities and other universities in India.
As per the old conversation with UGC Chairman M Jagadesh Kumar, he stated that CUET will no longer be limited only to central universities but also a few prominent private universities which indicated that they would like to come on board to use CUET scores for UG admissions.
Hence, to give students hope and a greater opportunity at securing UG seats, NTA is planning to hold CUET two times in line with National Education Policy, NEP 2020.
