Additionally, one new feature has been added to the DU’s portal through which every applicant will be able to check the details of the cutoffs and ranks that decide the allocation to a seat according to the category and quota of the candidates.
The University will show common rank, cut-off rank, program-specific CUET score, and cut-off score for all the programs for which the candidates have applied.
The official notification mentioned that the allocation of the seats would be based on the Unique Common Rank, so the candidates must note that meeting the cut-off does not guarantee a seat. The ranks of candidates may differ even after having similar scores. The common rank will be determined by the tie-breaking rules.
For performance-based programmes, the ranks will not be generated. The tie-breaking rules have also been revised, as the National Testing Agency (NTA) has declared raw scores instead of normalised scores.
