JNU Predictor FAQs

Is this rank/score my raw CUET PG score?

No. JNU admits candidates on 'Merit Marks' — your CUET PG score plus any applicable Deprivation Points (for regional/social disadvantage). The cutoff marks used here (typically 25-100) are Merit Marks, not the raw CUET PG score out of 300. Use your JNU Merit Marks from the admission portal for an accurate prediction.

Why do some programmes not show for my category?

It means no candidate was allotted a seat under that category in List 1 (2025-26) for that programme — often because very few seats exist. Cutoffs can open up in later lists (List 2, 3...) as seats vacate.

Do JNU cutoffs change in later lists?

Yes. JNU releases List 1, List 2, List 3 and so on as seats are vacated or reallotted. Cutoffs in later lists are usually equal to or lower than List 1, so more candidates get in as counselling progresses.

Which categories can I check cutoffs for?

You can check cutoffs for UR (Unreserved), OBC, SC, ST, EWS, PWD, and FN (Foreign National) categories, based on how JNU has published its List 1 (2025-26) results.

What does CODE-1 / CODE-2 mean for BA programmes?

JNU's BA (Hons.) language programmes run two separate merit lists per subject — CODE-1 and CODE-2. Your marks might clear one code's cutoff but not the other, so both are shown separately in your results.

Can I check multiple JNU programmes at once?

Yes. Leave the 'Specific Course' field empty and select only your Category and Marks (optionally narrow down by Programme Group) — the predictor will show every JNU programme you're eligible for in one combined list.

What Users have to Say

Ananya Rao

The JNU predictor helped me instantly check which programmes I could get into based on my CUET PG merit marks. I didn't have to manually go through the cutoff PDF for every subject — it showed everything in one place.

Vikram Chauhan

I was confused about how JNU's merit marks work compared to raw CUET PG score. The predictor's explanation about deprivation points cleared my doubt, and the results matched what I later saw during counselling.

Simran Kaur

Very useful tool for JNU MA aspirants. I entered my marks and category, and it showed all the programmes I had a realistic chance in in one table instead of checking each subject page separately.

Rohit Bansal

Good predictor for JNU PG admissions. The category-wise cutoff comparison was clear and easy to understand. Helped me shortlist a few M.A. programmes before List 2 came out.

Divya Nair

This saved me a lot of time during JNU admissions. Instead of downloading and reading the official cutoff PDF myself, I got a clear, sorted list based on my own marks and category.
