Prospective candidates who have already applied for Integrated B.Sc.B.Ed. at CUTN, Tiruvarur, must re-apply through the NCET portal (https://ncet.samarth.ac.in) before July 19, 2023.

Further information regarding domain-specific subjects for the entrance exam can be found in the document "CUET_UG_2023_Eligibility_criteria_10022023.pdf" available on the CUTN website (www.cutn.ac.in).
