Hi ,

The merit list in MHT CET is structured in a way to consider multiple categories: All India Merit, Home University Merit, and State Merit, among others. The most appropriate one for you depends on the type of institute you're applying to and your domicile status.

• Home University Merit applies to students applying in colleges within their home region.
• While state merit ranks all candidates from Maharashtra collectively.
• And all India merit is used for candidates from outside Maharashtra or those applying under All India quota seats.

If you are from Maharashtra and applying to a college in your local region, your rank in the Home University list will be most significant. For autonomous or private colleges, they might look at the State Merit or even All India merit depending on the seat type.

Hello,

For MHT CET admission , the most appropriate merit to consider is the Home University Merit if you belong to the university area where the college is located.

Here’s a simple guide:

• Home University Merit – For students from the same university region as the college (e.g., Pune, Mumbai, Nagpur, etc.).

• Other Than Home University (OHU) Merit – For students from a different university region within Maharashtra.

• All India Merit – For students from outside Maharashtra or those applying through JEE Main.

So, check your domicile and the location of the college . If both are in the same university area, use Home University Merit.

Hope it helps !
