SET 2027 CUT OFF

SET 2027 CUT OFF

The SET 2026 cut-off refers to the minimum score or percentile required to qualify for the next stages of the admission process at various Symbiosis International University (SIU) institutes. Since SET is used for multiple undergraduate programs across Symbiosis colleges, the cut-offs vary depending on the institute, course, and test category.

Symbiosis International (Deemed University) does not publish a single centralized cut-off list. Instead, each participating Symbiosis institute (such as SCMS Pune, SCMS Noida, SICSR, etc.) releases its own independent cut-off marks and shortlist for the PI-WAT (Personal Interaction & Written Ability Test) rounds shortly after the SET results are declared. The cut-offs and shortlisted candidate lists for SET 2027 are expected to be published between late May and early June 2027.

 

Factors Affecting SET 2027 Cut-Off

The cut-off for SET 2027 will depend on several factors, including

  • Total number of candidates appearing for SET 2026.
  • Difficulty level of the exam.
  • Number of seats available in each program.
  • Previous year cut-off trends.
  • Performance of candidates across all sections.
