Counselling Process Begins

The University of Allahabad has commenced its undergraduate (UG) admission process for the 2026-27 academic session, as reported by Free Press Journal. The counselling and admission process began on July 23 and will be conducted through the university's Samarth Admission Portal. The university has clarified that all counselling and admission-related activities for UG courses will be conducted via this portal.

As part of the preparations, the university held a meeting of Undergraduate Admission Coordinators at Pravesh Bhawan on July 23. The coordinators were briefed about the counselling and admission procedures to be followed through the Samarth portal.

Courses on Offer and Cut-offs

For the 2026-27 academic session, the university is offering admission to 12 four-year undergraduate programmes, along with the B.A.-B.Ed. Integrated Programme and six five-year integrated programmes. The first cut-off for individual UG courses will be published on the university's UG admission webpage.

Candidates can access the official Allahabad University UG Admissions 2026 page at allduniv.ac.in.

Samarth Portal Details

Candidates can access the counselling portal for UG courses through two designated links: alldunivcuet.samarth.edu.in for general UG courses, and alldunivcuet.samarth.edu.in/ncet/ for the B.A.-B.Ed. programme. The university has advised candidates to regularly check these portals as well as the official admission webpage for updates.

Admission Fee and Eligibility

The university has clarified that merely participating in the counselling process does not automatically make candidates eligible to pay the admission fee. Only verified and shortlisted applicants can pay the fee. Non-payment of the admission fee will lead to cancellation of the allotted seat. Candidates are advised to keep their registered email and mobile number active, as verified and shortlisted applicants will receive an email with instructions. Additionally, the university advises candidates not to depend on unofficial sources for admission-related information.
