Admission:

To get admitted to BHU for any course there is an entrance examination. Earlier BHU conducted its own entrance but from 2023 students have to clear the cut-off of the Central University Entrance Test(CUET) conducted by the Government for all Central Universities. One can find the entrance exam form, dates and fees with all the guidelines on the CUET website. I belong to the general category, therefore, I availed the girl student benefit. Other benefits can be availed by the respective categories on submitting the required proofs. The improvement most required is constant official news to be released on the website regarding the dates of results, counselling and the rest of the process. It should be completed within a stipulated time period. The management should handle the technical and other faults more effectively to save the students from stress and uncertainty.

The year I took admission i.e. 2020, BHU held its own UET(University Entrance Test) for UG & PG Courses. For BA (Hons) courses, you need to be 12th passed irrespective of stream. "bhuonline.in" is the official website of BHU, and there you can apply for various UG & PG courses. But Starting in 2021, admission to BHU is through the All India CUET (Central University Entrance Test). This means, Now you can apply for courses in BHU through CUET only.

Offline Document verification must be on different dates for different courses because long queues are made there and we have to wait for an hour to get to the document verification Counter.

To know how to get admission to BHU through a paid seat, you must first know what exactly a paid seat is. Every year BHU conducts entrance exams during the months of April, May and June. After this, the university releases the cutoff list. The students who fail to reach the cutoff but are just slightly below it are offered paid seats.  The admission process of both regular and paid seats is the same.
