The University of Hyderabad is accepting online applications for the academic year 2022–23 for admission to various courses.
Admissions will be made solely through the Common University Entrance Test (CUET-2022), which is being implemented by the Ministry of Education (MoE) through the National Testing Agency for admission into all Undergraduate programmes in all Central Universities for the academic session 2022-23.
The National Testing Agency organizes the CUET (Common University Entrance Test), formerly CUCET (Central Universities Common Entrance Test), an all-India test for admission to various undergraduate, integrated, postgraduate, diploma, certification, and research programmes in 45 central universities across India. A number of other state universities and deemed universities in India recognize it as well.

The test will be conducted in English, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali, Odia, Assamese, Gujarati, Marathi, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, and Urdu in a computer-based format (CBT). A mandatory language test, two domain-specific tests, and a general test will be included in the CUET 2022 question paper.
All integrated postgraduate programmes at the University of Hyderabad will be admitted through CUET 2022, and there will be no separate Entrance Exams for these programmes.
The exam is conducted once a year in over 500 places across India and around the world. The exam lasts two hours and is administered on a computer. Originally, CUCET was administered by UGC in a paper-pencil format. The NTA has been administering the test in a computer-based mode since last year.
