The Common University Entrance Test for Undergraduate programmes (CUET-UG) 2025, which was earlier scheduled to start on May 8, will now commence from May 13, the National Testing Agency (NTA) announced on Tuesday.

In a post on x, NTA confirmed that the city intimation slips for candidates will be released on May 7, enabling students to know their exam centres in advance.

The CUET-UG is the second-largest entrance exam in India, with over 13 lakh students appearing each year. It offers a single-window opportunity for admission to undergraduate programmes in more than 250 universities, including central, state, and private institutions like Delhi University, BHU, and JNU.

The exam was earlier expected to be held between May 8 and June, but with the latest update, it will now start two days earlier, from May 13.

NTA, which also conducts NEET and JEE, manages the CUET to streamline the admission process and reduce the burden of multiple entrance exams on students.

Good that NTA is giving city intimation slips early! Last year my friend had to travel 200km because she got her center details too late. Hope this reduces stress for students 🙏

Why the sudden date change? My coaching center had planned our final revisions according to May 8. Now everything gets disrupted. NTA should stick to one schedule!

CUET is a blessing for students from small towns like me. No need to give multiple exams for different universities. Just one test can open doors to DU, BHU and more! 😊

NTA needs to improve their website. Last year it crashed repeatedly during admit card downloads. With 13 lakh students appearing, they must upgrade their servers.

As a parent, I appreciate that CUET reduces exam burden. But the pattern changes every year create confusion. Some stability in syllabus and format would help students prepare better.

Pro tip for CUET aspirants: Start checking train/bus bookings as soon as you get your city slip. During exam season, transport gets booked very fast! All the best future graduates 👍
