UCEED Exam Ranking

UCEED Ranking

UCEED is a national-level entrance exam that stands for Undergraduate Common Entrance Examination for Design. The exam is organized by the Indian Institution of Bombay. The eligible candidates will be given a rank. The eligible candidates are the ones who have qualified for the exam.

The candidates will be shortlisted by evaluating their performances in Part A and Part B. Part A will be first evaluated and Part B will be evaluated only if the candidates have been qualified in Part A. The candidates who have qualified for both parts their scores will be calculated. Then a rank list will be generated based on the candidate's total scores obtained in the UCEED.

After the results are announced and the rank list is provided the seat allocation process starts. The seat allocation will be conducted in five rounds. However, the seat allocation will be closed once the seats are filled. The allotment of seats will take place based on different factors such as the applicant's All India Rank (AIR), category-based, and depending on the candidate's choice of institutes. Selected candidates will receive a provisional allotment letter through their registered email and will be directed to an online payment system to finalize their seat acceptances by paying a Fee of ₹ 60,000 (Rupees Sixty Thousand only) for GEN/EWS/OBC-NCL and ₹ 15,000/- (Rupees Fifteen Thousand only) for SC/ST/PwD.

If the two or more candidates have secured the same scores they will be ranked based on the tie-breaking policy.
