DBUU CET Scholarship Slabs
The CET page and the scholarship page give the 2026 slabs on the base fee after the domicile scholarship. The CET percentage bands apply to the first year; the CET page says the scholarship is multiplied with the qualifying-exam scholarship ("Multiply your Scholarship X 2"), and the university states that only one merit scholarship applies and that a year's total cannot pass 100%.
| Percentage | DBUU CET 2026 | Class 10, 12 or graduation marks |
|---|---|---|
| 60% and above | 10% | No scholarship (60% to 75%) |
| 75% and above | 20% | 10% |
| 80% and above | 30% | 15% |
| 90% and above | 50% | 25% |
| 95% and above | 100% | 50% |
The same percentile slabs of 10%, 20%, 30%, 50% and 100% also apply to CUET (UG or PG), JEE, NATA, NEET and other national tests, CAT and XAT, and MAT and CMAT scores. The 2025 test gave a minimum Rs 5,000 for scores above 50% and 5% to 100% by band.
