Factors Affecting NSUT Cutoff 2026
The following are the major factors determining NSUT cutoff 2026:
-
Number of Applicants: A higher number of students appearing for JEE Main, GATE, or CUET PG increases competition.
-
Difficulty Level of Entrance Exam: The difficulty of JEE Main, GATE, or CUET PG directly affects the NSUT cutoff for 2026 admissions.
-
Seat Availability (Seat Matrix): Courses with limited seats, such as CSE, AI, and Data Science, generally have more competitive cutoffs.
-
Home State vs Other State Quota: NSUT follows JAC Delhi reservation rules, and the NSUT cutoff JEE Mains outside Delhi (Other State quota) is more competitive than the Home State cutoff.
-
Category-wise Reservation: Reserved categories such as OBC-NCL, SC, ST, and EWS have different closing ranks. Hence, the NSUT cutoff for OBC and other categories varies widely compared to the General category.
-
Popularity of the Course: Highly preferred branches like Computer Science Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, and Mathematics & Computing tend to close at lower ranks, affecting the overall NSUT Delhi cutoff.
-
Previous Year Cutoff Trends: Past data plays a key role in predicting current-year cutoffs. Trends from earlier years help in estimating the NSUT cutoff percentile and rank ranges.
