GECET 2027

GECET runs in phases, and the group has published only some dates for each cycle. The 2027 column is expected windows only, based on the earlier cycles.

Phases between February and June 2026 are not on the pages checked.

The GEHU page says any student seeking admission to Graphic Era (Deemed to be University) or Graphic Era Hill University can apply for GECET, for undergraduate or postgraduate programmes, from anywhere in India. Paying the Rs 1,500 application fee makes a candidate eligible for the test. Admission to a programme still follows that programme's own eligibility rule.

The Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics condition fits the B.Tech syllabus. For BBA, B.Com, law, design and BA programmes the GEHU Dehradun programme pages ask for Class 12 in any stream with 50% or 55% marks, so the programme page rule applies to those courses.

The pattern below is the 2026 cycle's, from the GECET pages and the sample papers; no 2027 pattern is published.

The sample papers state a marking scheme of 100 marks, while the GECET page counts 100 questions. The two official pages therefore disagree on the question count; both are shown.

Every GECET paper has two parts: a common general aptitude part (70%) and a domain part (30%) that depends on the programme. The group publishes one syllabus PDF for each programme family.

Part 1: general aptitude (70%, common to all programmes)

• Quantitative ability: number system, percentage, profit and loss, simple and compound interest, ratio and proportion, averages, mixtures and solutions, time, speed and distance, time and work, basic algebra, permutation and combination, probability, set theory, clocks and calendar, logarithms.

Part 2: domain section (30%), by programme

• B.Tech (all branches except Biotechnology): Physics (12 units from physical world and measurement to dual nature of matter and electronic devices), Chemistry, Mathematics (sets, relations and functions to statistics and probability) and fundamentals of computer science (programming, data structures and algorithms, SQL, pseudo-code).

The GECET page ties a tuition scholarship to the marks scored. The two lowest slabs are one-time scholarships. The GECET page says the awards range from 20% to 100% in its FAQ and lists 5% and 10% one-time slabs in the table, so both are shown.

GEHU Dehradun also gives merit scholarships by Class 12 percentage, JEE Main percentile or CUET score in its fee tables, plus a 10% concession for girls and 5% for wards of defence personnel. The pages checked do not say how a GECET scholarship combines with those.

At GEHU Dehradun the admissions page says admission is strictly on the merit of the qualifying examination, completed online, with a Rs 1,500 application fee for all courses. GECET adds a scholarship route. The GECET FAQ calls it "a recommended pathway for securing admission and scholarships" that is "not strictly mandatory for all programs". The GECET page does not list the programmes for which it is needed, so the programme page should be checked.

The GEHU fee tables of the 2026 intake use 12th percentage, JEE Main percentile or CUET score (undergraduate) and graduation percentage or CAT, XAT, MAT, CMAT percentile (MBA) for their own scholarship slabs; the MBA page waives its aptitude test at 75 percentile in CAT, MAT, XAT or CMAT or 210 in NMAT.

The group publishes a GECET syllabus for each of the programme families below. GEHU Dehradun offers programmes in all of them.

The right-hand column is the match of GEHU Dehradun course pages to the syllabus families; the GECET pages do not list programmes by name. The same test serves Graphic Era (Deemed to be University).
