UG Admissions 2021: How different states will hold college admissions

NEW DELHI: Over half a dozen school boards have announced the Class 12 results 2021 including ISC and state boards like Chhattisgarh (CGBSE), Rajasthan (RBSE), West Bengal (WBCHSE), Andhra Pradesh (BIEAP) . While the wait is on for some of the largest to do so, including Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE Class 12 result), Uttar Pradesh (UPMSP) and Maharashtra HSC, several states and universities have already come up with strategies for degree admissions this year.

The board exams were cancelled this year due to the pandemic situation. Several states including West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha declared Class 12 results 2021 on the basis of alternative evaluation criteria formed by the boards. The CBSE will do so too.

Meanwhile, the education ministry also decided to put the expansion of the Central University Common Entrance Test (CUCET 2021) on hold for a year. Therefore, several central universities, including Delhi University, will continue to admit students based on their own policies.

This is what states and universities are doing.
