Factors Affecting Ramjas College Cutoff 2026
The CUET cutoff at Ramjas College shifts every year based on multiple variables. Key factors that will determine the 2026 closing score include:
- Total CUET test-takers per subject: More students taking Mathematics or Economics pushes the cutoff up due to increased competition for the same number of seats.
- Difficulty level of CUET UG 2026: An easier paper means more high scorers competing for the same seats, raising the cutoff.
- Seat intake at Ramjas College: DU may revise intake for specific programmes, which directly affects how many students get allocated in Phase 1.
- Score normalisation by NTA: CUET UG is conducted across multiple shifts and NTA applies normalisation. Your normalised score determines cutoff eligibility, not the raw score.
- Preference order in CSAS: Students who rank Ramjas College higher in their CSAS preferences are more likely to get allocated. A score just above the cutoff may not guarantee admission if your preference order for Ramjas is low.

For science programmes, aim for 180 and above to improve your Phase 1 allocation chances.
Ques. Does Ramjas College accept CUET scores for all programmes?
Ans. Yes. Ramjas College allocates seats for all its undergraduate programmes in arts, science and commerce through CUET UG scores submitted via DU CSAS. There is no separate entrance test for admission to Ramjas College.
Ques. How is CUET score calculated for DU admission to Ramjas College?
Ans. Each CUET UG domain subject paper carries a maximum of 200 marks (50 questions x 4 marks, minus 1 for a wrong answer). DU considers your score in the subject relevant to the programme you apply for. For example, the Mathematics score is used for B.Sc. Mathematics and the English score for B.A. English Hons. NTA applies normalisation across shifts before publishing the final score.
Ques. What is DU CSAS Phase 1 and how does it affect Ramjas College admission?
Ans. DU CSAS Phase 1 is the preference-filling round where you select and rank college-programme combinations including Ramjas College. After all preferences are submitted, DU runs an allocation algorithm matching students to seats based on CUET score and preference order. A higher CUET score and a higher rank for Ramjas College in your preference list improves your chance of getting allocated in Phase 1 itself.
Ques. Are CUET cutoff scores the same across all exam shifts for Ramjas College?
Ans. No. CUET UG is conducted across multiple shifts and NTA normalises scores before the final merit list. The cutoff applies to the normalised score, not the raw score. Students across different shifts are compared on equal footing after normalisation, so a raw score of 170 in a difficult shift may normalise to a higher effective score.
