UCEED Admit Card Date:08 Jan' 26 - 08 Jan' 26
Candidates will be admitted into the B.Des programme offered by the Indian Institute of Technology (IITs) through the Undergraduate Common Entrance Exam for Design. 6 IITs and IIITDM Jabalpur accept scores in the UCEED entrance exam for their B.Des admissions. A rank of 30 to 50 in UCEED 2026 may not be a good rank for all the IITs. In this article, let’s look at the IITs accepting UCEED rank between 30 and 50 based on past cut-off trends for different categories.
The IIT B.Des admissions 2026 will be done through multiple rounds of UCEED counselling. Candidates have to clear the UCEED cut-off to secure BDes admissions at IITs. Candidates can also make use of the UCEED 2026 college predictor developed by Careers360, which is a free tool that delivers college recommendations based on the candidate’s rank and category.
30 to 50 may not be a good rank for the most preferred IIT - IIT Bombay. However, the cut-off data show that candidates with UCEED ranks between 30 and 50 have good chances of admission into other IITs participating in UCEED 2026.
The tables below provide the category-wise list of top IITs for UCEED rank 30 to 50. The list of IITs has been prepared based on the UCEED 2025 cut-off trends seen last year. The cut-off ranks in the general category represent the All India rank, while the cut-off ranks for other categories represent the respective category rank.
The data shows that ST candidates do not have a chance of IIT B.Des admission with ranks between 30 and 50 as per the category cut-off ranks. Candidates from other categories can secure admission into one or more IITs with a rank of 30 to 50 in UCEED.

Hello,
For admission to Ajeenkya D.Y. Patil University (ADYPU), you must score a minimum of 50% in your 12th grade for the general category. However, ADYPU conducts its own entrance exam, known as the ACET ADYPU Common Entrance Exam, which includes a studio test and a personal interview. So, you would have a chance for admission based on how well you score in the entrance exam.
Hope it helps!!!

Hello!
UCEED is a competitive exam for design aspirants, testing design aptitude, logical thinking, creativity, and visualisation skills. To improve your score out of 300, start by understanding the exam pattern—Part A (objective) and Part B (subjective). For Part A, practice reasoning, numerical aptitude, and environmental & social awareness questions. For Part B, focus on drawing, sketching, and presenting your ideas clearly. Solve past year UCEED papers and join online mock test series. Spend at least 2–3 hours daily practising creative problem-solving and sketching. Also, work on time management because the exam requires quick thinking.
Thank you for reading, and I wish you the best
