According to the National Testing Agency (NTA), the CUET-UG examination days would be extended by at least four days to accommodate the increased number of candidates in certain cities. The second edition of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET)-UG is set to take place from May 21 to May 31.
"In some cities, the count of registered candidates is very large. To accommodate these candidates, the CUET examination days will be extended to June 1-2 as well as June 5-6. Moreover, buffer days of June 7 and 8 are also being kept as reserve days. In the coming days, NTA will issue the City Intimation Slip for these additional days," said Sadhana Parashar, Senior Director (Exams), NTA.
The NTA has also stated that the City Intimation Slip and the admit card are not the same thing.
"These slips are for advance intimation for allotment of city where the examination centre will be located, to facilitate the candidates. The admit cards will be issued later," she added.
This year, about 14 lakh applications were submitted for the CUET-UG, representing a 41% increase over the first edition last year.
In terms of candidate numbers, the CUET-UG remains the country's second-largest admission exam. In the first edition of CUET-UG, 12.50 lakh students registered and 9.9 lakh applications were submitted.
