What this page cannot tell you
- Where you will get in. Banaras Hindu University allocates by the order of your preferences and the seats left in each round; a closing score only says who was allocated last.
- What 2027 will close at. CUET is normalised afresh each year, and seats and paper rules change, so 2026's lists are a guide to 2027, not a forecast.
- The courses that add Banaras Hindu University's practical examination: Bachelor of Fine Arts — Applied Arts, Painting (Painting/Textile Design), Plastic Arts (Pottery & Ceramic) and Bachelor of Performing Arts — Vocal, Instrumental (Sitar/Flute/Tabla), Dance (Bharatanatyam/Kathak). Their merit combines CUET with the practical, so no CUET score can be read against them.
- Banaras Hindu University's paid-fee seats. They are allotted on lists of their own, which each course's page prints.
