A good score in the UCEED 2026 round 1 seat allotment varies across categories. Similarly, some of the UCEED participating institutes, such as IIT Bombay and IIT Delhi, have a higher UCEED 2026 cutoff, which means a good score in UCEED 2026 for round 1 will differ across institutes as well. The final score in the UCEED entrance exam is determined based on the combined score in Parts A and B of the exam. The Indian Institute of Technology will publish the UCEED 2026 round 1 seat allotment on April 21, 2026.
Candidates who secure the seat allotment in the UCEED 2026 counselling will be admitted into the BDes programme of participating institutes. Earlier, IIT Bombay conducted UCEED 2026 on January 18, 2026.
To understand the good score for the first round allotment in UCEED 2026, one must look at the UCEED 2026 marks vs rank data and compare the UCEED cutoff ranks with the corresponding marks.
It must be noted that while the UCEED cutoff for general is denoted in terms of All India rank, the cutoff rank for other categories is denoted as the respective category rank. The table below provides the expected good score to obtain UCEED 2026 round 1 seat allotment at various IITs for the open category based on the All India cutoff ranks last year.
