CUET UG 2025 Accountancy Paper: NTA extends application deadline for retest
The National Testing Agency has extended the application deadline for candidates who want to appear for the CUET UG 2025 accountancy re-test. The deadline has been extended from May 23 to May 24.
Designed with the help of subject matter experts, the revised pattern introduces a choice in the Accountancy paper, allowing candidates to answer questions from either Unit V: Computerised Accounting Systems or an optional unit.
In the previous structure, Unit V was mandatory, which placed some candidates — especially those less familiar with computerised accounting — at a disadvantage. The updated format is intended to offer flexibility and align the exam with students' areas of strength.
Candidates who opt in for the retest but do not show up will be marked 'absent', and no marks will be awarded for the subject.
The eligible candidates – or those who appeared for the Accountancy paper from May 13 to 16 – will be given the option to either retain their original scores or appear for a retest under a revised exam pattern.
'Candidates who have already appeared for the Accountancy paper during 13th to 16th May 2025 will be given an opportunity to either retain their examination or to re-appear in the revised question paper pattern,' the statement read.
In case no response is received within stipulated time, the scores obtained in the test conducted during 13th to 16th May 2025 shall be considered as final score, the agency said.
For details regarding the date, time, and centre for the retest, candidates have been asked to keep visiting the official NTA websites – nta.ac.in and cuet.nta.nic.in.
Students who wish to apply for the CUET UG 2025 Accountancy paper retest must complete the application process by May 24, 2025, 1:00 pm, via the link provided on the NTA's official portal.

DU admission starts with changes in eligibility and tiebreaker criteria
New Delhi: Delhi University (DU) on Tuesday kicked off its admission process for the 2025-26 academic year with the launch of its Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) portal. In a notable change to the undergraduate admission process, Class X board marks will now be used as an additional tiebreaker in cases where candidates have the same CUET scores and Class XII marks. DU vice-chancellor Yogesh Singh said that several modifications were made to the admission process this year, drawing on lessons from previous years. The upgraded admission portal now features a direct auto-accept mode to ensure that no applicant misses out on seat allotment. According to DU's dean of admissions, Haneet Gandhi, the second phase of the process will begin once CUET results are announced. Admissions to regular colleges will be based on CUET scores. For the coming academic year, the university is offering 79 undergraduate programmes across 69 colleges to a total of 71,624 seats. The academic session is scheduled to start on Aug 1, Singh added. Gandhi said that in response to changes in the subject list introduced by the National Testing Agency this year, DU has revised its eligibility criteria for most programmes. Many now offer dual eligibility options — candidates may choose one language and three subjects, or two languages and two subjects. The combination yielding the best score will be considered. Additionally, the previous requirement of securing at least 30% marks in languages in CUET for BSc (Hons) programmes has been removed. Talking about the CUET system, Singh said: "The representation of students from many states has increased in DU. Now, students from small towns and state boards are also coming forward to seek admission here." The university has also begun admissions for a range of skill-based programmes offered through its Centre for Innovative Skill-Based Courses. The undergraduate admission process will be conducted in two phases. In addition to undergraduate offerings, the university has launched two new postgraduate programmes — MA in tourism management and MA in Hindi journalism this year. Singh announced that the university is also planning to introduce an MA journalism programme under the English department. "It is still in the planning stage, and we are working out the modalities," he said. The launch marks the beginning of admissions not only for undergraduate courses but also for postgraduate, five-year law, BTech, PhD and School of Open Learning (SOL) programmes. Alongside, the portals for registration in five-year integrated law and BTech programmes have been activated, and the allocation-cum-admission process has commenced for several postgraduate courses. For postgraduate programmes, Singh announced the introduction of an additional quota for single-girl child applicants, with one seat reserved in each programme — a provision already present in undergraduate admissions. This year, DU is offering admissions to 82 postgraduate programmes, with a total of 13,432 seats, including those under NCWEB. So far, 53,609 candidates have registered. The registration portal for postgraduate programmes in the School of Open Learning has also been launched. According to SOL director Payal Mago, admissions to most PG programmes will be based on CUET scores. If seats remain vacant, they will be filled through a merit-based system. However, admissions to MBA, BLISc, MLISc, and PGDADLM programmes will continue without CUET. To assist applicants, DU's admission branch has set up nine telephone helplines, an email facility, and a Chatbot service to address queries related to the admission process.
