Indian Council of Agricultural Research All India Entrance Examination for Admission

Under the current arrangement, candidates choose the CUET subject papers matching the agricultural stream they want, appear in the computer-based test, and are then considered for the ICAR quota seats in state agricultural universities, deemed universities and central agricultural universities that participate in the national allotment. ICAR continues to run the counselling and seat allotment for its quota using the CUET scores, so students must complete both the CUET registration and the separate ICAR counselling registration when it opens. The academic content assessed corresponds to class 12 subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics and Agriculture for undergraduate entry, and to the relevant discipline for postgraduate entry.

Programme lists, participating universities, quota size and the counselling schedule are announced by ICAR each year, and the test schedule itself by the National Testing Agency.
