CUT-OFFS ON RECORD

UGC-NET cut-offs

Published figures only  •  no predictions

We do not publish expected cut-offs. Every figure below was released by NTA and links to the notice that released it. A predicted cut-off is somebody's arithmetic, not a fact, and students plan whole years around them.

Confirm before you act. Every date below was copied from the official website named beside it, at the time stamped beside it. Dates change, and a page can change between our check and your visit.

03How to read these

What the numbers mean

A cut-off is the minimum score or rank a candidate needed to clear that stage in a given year. It is set after the exam, based on the difficulty of that year's paper and the number of seats or vacancies — it is not decided in advance and cannot be predicted reliably before it is published.

Cut-offs are usually published category-wise (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS, PwD) because reservation rules mean each category clears at a different score.
