Cut-offs, 2024–2026
Round by round
Pondicherry University · UR
| Year | Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 130 | 116 | 106 |
| 2025 | 230.13 | No list | No list |
| 2026 | 232.45 | 224.88 | 220.95 |
2025 had no Round 2 or Round 3 list. A line breaks wherever a round was not published or no seat was allocated in this category; nothing is filled in between.
What moved between 2025 and 2026
One list, so one row per category
With no colleges to compare, each category is compared with itself at the earliest list both years printed for it. That list is named on the row.
Across every round, by category
| Category | Median change | Seats compared | Rose / fell |
|---|---|---|---|
| UR | +2.32 rose | 1 | 1 / 0 |
| EWS | -0.22 fell | 1 | 0 / 1 |
| OBC-NCL | -12.04 fell | 1 | 0 / 1 |
| SC | -4.52 fell | 1 | 0 / 1 |
| ST | +34.6 rose | 1 | 1 / 0 |
| PwBD | -53.4 fell | 1 | 0 / 1 |
6 seats appear in both years' lists and are compared with themselves — same college, same variant, same round, same category. Rounds are never mixed: a later round closes lower everywhere, so mixing them would report a collapse that is only an extra page in the document. Read the figures as movement, not as difficulty: CUET is normalised separately each year, so a category that rose may have met a harder paper rather than harder competition.
One row per college or variant, highest first. Each links to the list it was copied from.
