Will I be eligible for the universities which I have not opted in the CUET form?

Of course, YES! If you have applied for CUET 2023, you will be eligible for all the participating universities. Irrespective of the number of universities you have applied to or the preferred list of courses, if your choice of subjects and CUET score meets the eligibility criteria of any of the 240+ participating universities of CUET 2023 you can take admission there.

The CUET 2023 application form does not limit your eligibility for admission to any particular university or course for your admission. The application fee charged for CUET 2023 is based on the number of subjects you have opted and not for the number of universities or courses you have applied to. One can choose a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 10 subjects for CUET 2023.

There are more than 240 universities participating in CUET 2023 and offering 3 lakh+ seats for UG admission. It is practically not possible for any candidate to apply for as many universities or courses as they want to. Keeping this in mind, the CUET official notification says that if any candidate has filled out the CUET application form, paid the fees, and took the exams would be eligible for admissions to any of the 240+ participating universities and courses offered by them, provided they meet their eligibility criteria.

Each university in CUET has its own eligibility criteria and a fixed quota of seats available, so it's essential to thoroughly research each university's requirements (eligibility criteria & number of seats) to check your eligibility. CUET offers UG admission to 240+ universities (including 47 central universities like, DU, JNU, BHU, JMI, etc.).
