The National Testing agency (NTA) had announced last week that the Common University Entrance Test, or CUET-UG, would be conducted on 15 July, 16 July, 19 July, 20 July, 4 August, 6 August, 7 August, 8 August and 10 August. NTA is scheduled to release the CUET-UG 2022 admit card on 12 July, Tuesday at 6 pm.
The candidates had previously raised concerns about the fact that the admit cards are being released late for the exam. This could pose as a problem because the admit cards will specify the centre. Where each candidate is allotted to for the examination.
In response to the candidate queries, the University Grants Commission (UGC) chairman M. Jagadesh Kumar has said that 98% candidates appearing for the CUET will be allotted the exam centres in the city of their choice.
CUET exam centres in city of choice
“The admit cards have been released four days prior to the examination due to security reasons and in order to avoid any malpractice in the exam. Over 14 lakh candidates have registered for the exam which will be conducted across 500 cities. It is a mammoth task and NTA is a professional exam conducting body. The students should not get worried. At least 98 per cent candidates will get the centre in city of their choice. Those who do not find the allotted centre feasible can reach out to NTA. Which will entertain their requests”, Kumar told the press.
Candidates are advised to keep an eye on the official website cuet.samarth.ac.in for the latest update.
