University of Delhi works your score out afresh for each course from the papers that course counts, so read each line against the total that course would use. Science courses are marked out of 750 and are in the lookup.

What this page cannot tell you
- Where you will get in. University of Delhi 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 University of Delhi's own test: B.Sc. Physical Education, Health Education and Sports (PE, HE & S), B.A. (Hons.) Music: Vocal/Instrumental (Sitar/Sarod/Guitar/Violin/Santoor), B.A. (Hons.) Hindustani Music: Percussion (Tabla/Pakhawaj), B.A. (Hons.) Karnatak Music: Vocal/Instrumental (Veena/Violin), and Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA). Their merit is half CUET and half the test, so no CUET score can be read against them.
