The MGMCET (Mahatma Gandhi Mission College of Engineering and Technology) Navi Mumbai admissions for 2026 will rely heavily on cut-off marks, which serve as the minimum scores candidates must secure to qualify for different B.E./B.Tech programs through MHT-CET and other accepted entrance exams. The MGMCET cut-offs act as crucial benchmarks for eligibility, seat allotment, and merit-based admissions.
MGMCET adopts cut-offs based on Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MHT-CET) and Maharashtra-JEE-Main ranks, varying across courses, categories, and counselling rounds. These cut-offs indicate the competitiveness of each program and help streamline admissions to ensure only qualified candidates obtain seats.
