The exact number of candidates appearing for CUET (Common University Entrance Test) 2025 is not yet officially available. The National Testing Agency (NTA), which conducts the CUET, usually releases these statistics after the application window closes. The application process for CUET UG 2025 was open from March 1 to March 24, 2025.

However, we can look at the trends from previous years to get an idea of the potential number of candidates for CUET 2025.

In 2024 , a total of 1,347,820 unique candidates registered for the CUET UG examination. Out of these, 1,113,610 candidates actually appeared for the test.

In 2023 , the number of registered candidates was even higher, with approximately 14.99 lakh students registering for the exam.

In the debut year of CUET in 2022 , around 14.9 lakh students had registered.

Based on these trends, it's reasonable to expect that the total number of candidates appearing for CUET 2025 will likely be somewhere in the range of 11 to 14 lakh students . Some sources even predict a potential increase in registrations for 2025 compared to 2024, possibly exceeding 14.8 lakh, as more universities adopt CUET for their undergraduate admissions.

Once the NTA compiles and releases the official data for CUET 2025, the exact number of participating candidates will be confirmed. This information is usually made public through press releases and on the official CUET website. Keep an eye on the official NTA website (cuet.nta.nic.in) for the latest updates and statistics regarding CUET 2025.
