Direct admissiom to B.E. CSE (Cyber Security) at Chandigarh University is generally not allowed, as CUCET is mandatory for admission. However, exceptions may be made for students based on their JEE-Mains scores. CU offers a performance-based scholarship for top JEE rankers, covering anywhere from 10% to 100% of the semester fee, depending on your All India Rank (AIR). For example, students with an AIR up to 25,000 can get a 100% scholarship, while those ranked 1,00,000-1,25,000 can get 10% off. So, while direct admission without CUCET isn't standard, a strong JEE score can help you skip some steps and avail scholarships.
