Understanding the BHU CUET Round 2 Cutoff

The BHU Round 2 cutoff represents the minimum CUET UG score at which the last eligible candidate secured a seat in a specific course and category during the second round of CAP-UG counselling. This cutoff is determined after considering seats that became vacant or remained unfilled from Round 1. These vacancies can arise from candidates not confirming their seats, opting for an upgrade to a different course preference, or newly added candidates to the merit pool. Typically, Round 2 cutoffs are lower than Round 1 cutoffs for most courses, reflecting the reduced pool of available seats and a more focused applicant group.

Sample Round 1 Cutoff Scores

To provide an idea of the cutoff trends, here are some sample Round 1 cutoff scores for various courses:

Course	Round 1 Cutoff Score
B.Sc. (Hons.) Zoology	666.92
B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture	652.84
B.Sc. (Hons.) Chemistry	642.75
B.Com. (Hons.)	563.09
B.Sc. (Hons.) Mathematics	525.40
B.A. (Hons.) Geography	397.70
B.A. LLB (Hons.)	383.10
B.A. (Hons.) Psychology	379.98

How to Check Your BHU CUET Round 2 Allotment

Follow these steps to check your BHU CUET Round 2 cutoff and seat allotment status:

1. Visit the official admission portal: admission.bhu.ac.in or bhucuet.samarth.edu.in.
2. Log in using your CUET UG application number and password.
3. Navigate to the "CAP-UG Round 2" or "Cutoff" section on your personalized dashboard.
4. Review your allotted course, category, campus, and the corresponding cutoff score.
5. If a seat is allotted, download or take a screenshot of your provisional allotment letter.
6. Proceed to pay the admission/seat confirmation fee within the specified deadline once the payment window is activated.

Freeze or Upgrade: Your Options After Allotment

After receiving a seat allotment in Round 2, candidates typically have two main options:

• Freeze: Select this option if you are satisfied with the course allotted in Round 2 and do not wish to be considered for any further upgrades in subsequent rounds.
• Upgrade: Choose this option if you desire to remain in contention for a higher-preference course in Round 3, while simultaneously securing your current allotted seat as a backup.

It is crucial to pay the required admission fee within the notified deadline. Failure to complete the fee payment within the stipulated time will result in the automatic cancellation of the allotted seat, based on BHU's counselling regulations from previous rounds.

Important Instructions for Candidates
