Hello,

Yes, you can get admission to a government college in Uttar Pradesh with a UP domicile, even if your schooling was done outside the state. Your domicile status makes you eligible for state quota seats in government colleges. Admission is typically based on entrance exams like UPSEE for engineering or NEET for medical courses. Ensure you meet the specific eligibility criteria of the college or course you are applying to, which may include entrance exam scores and other requirements.

Hope this helps,

Thank you

Yes, having a UP domicile gives you a significant advantage in securing admission to a government college in Uttar Pradesh, even if your schooling was done outside the state.

In Uttar Pradesh government colleges, a specific percentage of seats (usually around 85%) is reserved for students with a UP domicile. This quota ensures a higher chance of admission for students from the state.


The cut-off marks for admission to government colleges in UP, especially for competitive programs, are often lower for students belonging to the UP domicile quota compared to the All India Quota (open to students from all states).

Admission to most government colleges in UP for undergraduate programs happens through entrance exams like UPCATET (UP Combined Agriculture and Technology Entrance Test) or UPSEE (Uttar Pradesh State Entrance Examination). These exams might have separate application forms for the UP domicile quota and the All India Quota. Ensure you apply under the UP domicile quota to avail of the benefits.

Some colleges might have specific requirements regarding the board your schooling was affiliated with (e.g., CBSE, ISCE). Check the college's admission brochure for any such stipulations.

I hope it helps!
