The University Grants Commission [UGC] announced on May 19 that post-graduate admissions for the upcoming admission session will be conducted through a Common University Entrance Test [CUET], like the one for under-graduate courses announced a few months back.
“Common University Entrance Test (CUET-PG) for post-graduate admissions to be held in the last week of July, 2022. Application form submission will start today on NTA (National Testing Agency) website. Programme details will be available on websites of participating Central Universities & other Universities,” UGC Chairman M Jagadesh Kumar said on Twitter.
The decision comes weeks after the UGC chief announced that CUET scores, and not Class 12 scores, will be mandatory for admission to 45 central universities and that the central universities can fix their minimum eligibility criteria.
