Admission:

We had to take an entrance test. The eligible person has to score a minimum 55% in 12th to take the test. The forms are available on the official Website of CU. The forms are uploaded generally in the the month of June and exams are held in the same month. After COVID-19, since 2020, they have started taking admission on the basis of 12th board results. I am not in favour of this decision as 12th boards can't decide the merit of a student. An entrance test gives a ray of hope to those who didn't score good marks in boards.
