JNU PG Prospectus 2026 Released, Admissions to Begin After CUET-PG Results

Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has released its postgraduate prospectus for the 2026–27 academic session, announcing that admissions will begin soon after the results of the CUET PG 2026 are declared. The entrance test, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA), was held between March 6 and March 27, and candidates are now awaiting the answer key and results.

As per the prospectus, admission to most PG programmes—including MA, MSc, MPH, MTech, PG Diploma, and Advanced Diploma—will be based on CUET-PG 2026 scores. Aspirants have been advised to carefully review the eligibility criteria outlined in the document before applying.

However, certain specialised programmes will follow separate admission routes. Courses such as MSc (Biotechnology) and MSc (Computational Biology) will consider GAT-B scores, while MTech programmes in Computer Science and Engineering and Electronics and Communication Engineering will be filled through the Centralised Counselling for MTech (CCMT).

JNU has also urged candidates to keep essential documents ready, including academic certificates, marksheets, caste or category certificates (if applicable), and income proof where required, as these will be needed during the admission process.

The university stated that detailed information regarding the admission portal, schedule, and procedures will be released soon after the CUET-PG results are announced. Meanwhile, the NTA is expected to release the provisional answer key shortly.

The CUET-PG 2026 examination was conducted in both English and Hindi for most papers, while select subjects—particularly in higher sciences and technical fields—were offered only in English. Some specialised papers, such as Acharya programmes, were conducted in Sanskrit or in a trilingual format.

Candidates are advised to regularly check official websites for updates as the admission process is set to begin shortly.
