THE University Grants Commission (UGC) on
Friday announced the extension of application
deadline for the Common University Entrance
Test (CUET)-UG till May 31. Over 11.5 lakh can-
didates have already registered for the test.
“In view of representations received from can-
didates regarding giving them an opportunity to
submit their online application form for CUET
(UG)-2022, we have decided to keep the applica-
tion process open again from May 27 till May 31,â€
UGC Chairman M Jagadesh Kumar said.
The UGC chief had in March announced that
CUET scores, and not Class 12 marks, would be
mandatory for admission to 45 central universi-
ties, and that the central universities can fix their
minimum eligibility criteria.
