Jamia Millia Islamia Plans Alternate Admission Strategy Amid CUET-UG Result Uncertainty

Jamia Millia Islamia is exploring alternate strategies for undergraduate admissions due to delays in the CUET-UG results. A meeting with deans is set for Thursday to devise a plan. Unlike other universities like JNU and DU, Jamia only partially uses CUET scores. The NTA's exam irregularities exacerbate the situation.

Jamia Millia Islamia is grappling with the uncertainty surrounding CUET-UG results and is mulling over alternate admission strategies, an official stated on Tuesday. The university will convene a meeting of deans on Thursday to address the issue.

Jamia is unique among Delhi's central universities for not fully adopting the CUET system for UG and PG course admissions. CUET scores are only used for a subset of courses.

The NTA has announced a re-test for CUET UG candidates following complaints of irregularities. This delay impacts the start of academic sessions in several universities, leading to considerations like holding extra classes to cover the syllabus.
