Yes, it is possible to get reservation while seeking admission to BTech courses through the CUET exam, but this depends on the university and the admission route they follow.

CUET is mainly used by central, state, and some private universities for undergraduate admissions. If a university offers BTech admission through CUET scores, then reservation policies are generally applied as per Government of India norms. This includes reservations for categories such as SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD, and sometimes university-specific quotas. Candidates belonging to these categories can avail reservation benefits provided they have selected the correct category while filling the CUET application form and possess valid category certificates at the time of admission.

However, it is important to note that many top engineering institutes still admit students to BTech programs primarily through exams like JEE Main and JEE Advanced. Only selected universities consider CUET scores for BTech admissions. In such cases, reservation is applied during merit list preparation and seat allotment, not during the exam itself.

Therefore, if you are aiming for BTech admission through CUET, you should first confirm whether the university accepts CUET scores for engineering courses and then ensure your category details are correctly filled and documents are ready. Reservation benefits will be applicable as per the rules of the admitting university.

All the best.

Hello Aspirant

CUET only conducts the entrance exam; it does not provide reservations on its own.

Reservation for B.Tech seats is given by the universities during counselling. Central Universities follow the national reservation rules (SC, ST, OBC-NCL, EWS, PwD).

State universities follow their respective state reservation policies. So yes, you can get a reservation in B.Tech if the university you choose offers it through CUET admission.
