Tezpur University in Tezpur, Assam, determines admissions primarily through national entrance exams like JEE Main for BTech, CUET UG/PG for integrated and postgraduate programs, GATE for MTech, UCEED for BDes, and university-specific tests where applicable, with cutoffs released as merit lists or closing ranks post-results. Cutoffs fluctuate annually based on applicant numbers, seat availability (around 1,500 UG/PG seats), exam difficulty, and category reservations (50% merit, 27% OBC-NCL, 15% SC, 7.5% ST, 10% EWS, plus PwD/supernumerary). Previous years show competitive ranks for engineering (52,000-85,000 CRL for BTech) and moderate scores for CUET programs, with General category highest, followed by reserved quotas; trends indicate 5-10% rank tightening yearly due to rising Northeast applicants.
Admission Criteria Overview
