Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has started accepting applications for postgraduate admissions for the 2026-27 academic year. This follows the National Testing Agency's (NTA) release of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) PG results. Students who took the CUET PG exam can now apply for Master of Arts (MA), Master of Science (M.Sc.), and Master of Computer Applications (MCA) programs on JNU's official admission portal.
Application Process Begins
Candidates must visit the JNU admission portal at jnuee.jnu.ac.in. They need to log in using their CUET PG application number and date of birth. This step is mandatory for JNU admissions. Admission is not automatic based on CUET PG scores alone. Applicants must complete the JNU-specific application form.
Eligibility and Requirements
Eligibility for JNU's postgraduate courses depends on CUET PG 2026 scores. It also includes specific criteria set by JNU departments. Applicants should check the JNU prospectus for detailed departmental requirements. The university will consider both CUET PG performance and JNU's individual requirements.
Required Documents
Applicants must upload several documents. These include:
- CUET PG Scorecard
- Class 10 and Class 12 certificates
- Graduation marksheets
- Category certificates (if applicable)
- Any other documents specified in the JNU prospectus
Next Steps and Announcements
The university will release category-wise merit lists. This will happen after the application window closes. Students should regularly check the official JNU website. They need to monitor for updates on the counseling schedule and cutoff marks. The e-prospectus is available on the JNU PG admission page for more information.
