Admission Description

The admission architecture for the 2026-27 academic calendar balances state-level standardized allocations with direct merit paths:

• Step 1: Application Submission: Prospective applicants must register through the college's centralized admission portal or submit a physical application form by the standard seasonal deadlines (typically running through June).

• Step 2: Entrance and Eligibility Filters:

  • For the MBA program, candidates must appear for the national/state-level CUET PG examination and hold a valid graduation profile with $\ge 50\%$ structural marks.

  • For undergraduate tracks (BBA, BCA, B.Sc), admissions rely heavily on 10+2 scores combined with performance in the college's internal Common Entrance Test (CET) or interview rounds.

• Step 3: Centralized Counseling (UPTAC): Following result notifications, postgraduate applicants register online for UPTAC (Uttar Pradesh Technical Admission Counseling) windows to lock in their branch preferences.

• Step 4: Verification and Reporting: Allocated candidates must report physically to the Agra campus with original academic mark sheets, identity verifications, category certificates, and entrance scorecards to seal enrollment with the first fee transaction. Direct admission or vacant management quota seats are handled on campus based on absolute academic merit.

Cutoff Description

Cutoffs follow a varied path determined by counseling seat trends under state-level frameworks.

• MBA Program (UPTAC / CUET PG Cutoffs): For regular seats allotted via UPTAC counseling, General category applicants need to target ranks finishing inside the state rank thresholds, which fluctuate heavily between rounds. Safe baseline targets generally require a performance ranking within the 45th to 65th percentile band of the national entrance testing pool.

• UG Programs Merit Cutoffs: Traditional courses like BBA, BCA, and B.Com do not feature structural opening/closing state rank charts. Instead, they apply strict direct academic merit cutoffs where a minimum of 50% marks in 10+2 boards serves as the initial gate, with high-demand computer application batches selecting top tiers down to an internal cut of around 65% to 70% aggregate scores during peak registration cycles.

• Placement Metrics: The overall corporate placement rate stands steadily around 75% across all major passing batches.
