Each figure is the highest Round 1 closing score across the university's colleges (or quotas, where it runs separate lists for home-state and outside applicants) — the hardest seat to get in that category. Later rounds close lower. Each university builds its own merit score from CUET, so a figure from one university cannot be compared with another's. Where a university printed a merit or selection list rather than a cut-off, the figure is the last admitted candidate's score in that list, marked “from merit list”.

Questions
- What is the Pondicherry University CUET cutoff 2026?
- Pondicherry University's highest UR closing score in 2026 was 630.14, for B.Sc. (Hons.) Bioinformatics. The table on this page gives every programme's closing figure in five categories, each from the university's own list.
- Where does Pondicherry University publish its CUET cutoff?
- On its own admission portal, round by round. Every figure on this page links to the list and page it was copied from.
- Is the 2026 cut-off the score I will need in 2027?
- Only as a guide. CUET is normalised afresh every year and seat numbers change, so a 2026 closing score says how hard a seat was that year, not the score that will close it next year.

What this page does not tell you
- The closing score of a later round, a supernumerary seat or a quota not in these five columns. Those are on each programme page.
- Whether your score will get you a seat next year. No site can: the paper, its normalisation and the number of applicants all change.
