Odisha CPET Cut Off 2026: What Determines It

• The Odisha CPET cut-off is the minimum rank or score required to be eligible for a seat in a particular subject and college. It is not a fixed number and depends on several factors:
• Total number of candidates who appeared and qualified for a subject
• Number of seats available in that subject at each university/college
• Difficulty level of the entrance test for that year
• Category-wise reservation as per Odisha state norms (SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, PwD, and women candidates)
• Tie-breaking rules higher marks in the qualifying degree are considered first, followed by age, with older candidates given preference
• The official subject-wise and college-wise cut-off marks for CPET 2026 will be published by SAMS Odisha along with or shortly after the seat allotment rounds. Candidates should refer only to the official portal for confirmed cut-off figures rather than unverified numbers circulating elsewhere.

Odisha CPET 2026 Eligibility Criteria for Counselling

• Candidates must hold a Bachelor's degree (3-year or 4-year) from a university recognised by the University Grants Commission (UGC).
• Both Honours and Pass course graduates are eligible to apply.
• Candidates awaiting their final-year UG results can also participate, subject to submitting proof of having passed with the required marks at the time of admission.
• Candidates who scored below the minimum qualifying percentage at the UG level are not eligible for counselling, irrespective of their CPET score.
