According to shiksha, University Business School (UBS) Chandigarh accepts entrance exam scores from the PU-CET (PG) and CAT exams for admission to eligible courses. The PU-CET (PG) exam is conducted by Panjab University for PG course admissions. For MBA admissions, UBS Chandigarh accepts CAT scores. Candidates with a valid PUCET score must apply for admission by visiting the Panjab University website. UBS Chandigarh will then call candidates with a valid PUCET score for a GD and Personal Interview round. For executive MBA programs, candidates must qualify for the entrance examination conducted by Panjab University. The final selection is based on the candidate's overall performance. The overall cut off for UBS Chandigarh admission by a general category student is expected to be around 90 to 92 percentile. 

While a 75 percentile in PUCET is a decent score, it's difficult to guarantee your admission to the M.Com programme at UBS Chandigarh solely based on that due to the following reasons:

1. UBS Chandigarh Admission Process:

• Admission to M.Com at UBS Chandigarh considers multiple factors beyond just PUCET scores. These include:
  • Previous academic record: Your academic performance in your bachelor's degree plays a significant role.
  • Work experience (if applicable): Relevant work experience can be a valuable asset.
  • Statement of purpose and letter of recommendation: These documents provide insights into your motivations and potential.
  • Group Discussion and Personal Interview: Your performance in these rounds helps assess your communication skills,  personality,  and fit for the program.

2. Cutoff Variations:

• The cut-off for PUCET scores varies every year based on factors like the number of applicants,  their overall profiles,  and programme availability.
• A 75 percentile might have been sufficient in a previous year but may not be enough for the current year.

3. Limited Information:

• Unfortunately,  I don't have information on the specific PUCET score cut-off for M.Com at UBS Chandigarh for the current year.

Here's what you can do:

• Visit the official UBS Chandigarh website for the latest information on M.Com admissions:
• Contact the admissions office directly to inquire about the cut-offs for the current year.
• Consider using online resources like  Shiksha to get an estimate of previous year's cut-offs.
• Remember,  even if your PUCET score doesn't meet the cut-off,  a strong overall profile with excellent academic performance,  relevant work experience,  and a compelling application can still increase your chances of admission.

University Business School (UBS) Chandigarh is a public management college affiliated with Panjab University. It is known for its quality of education and has been consistently ranked among India's top business schools. In 2022, UBS Chandigarh was ranked 25th in the NIRF Ranking for Universities and 23rd in the IIRF 2023 Ranking. UBS Chandigarh has a wheelchair accessible entrance and parking lot. It also has eight boys' hostels and 10 girls' hostels on campus, with allotment based on merit. 

The minimum cutoff for the MBA programme at UBS Chandigarh in 2023 is actually not yet available since the admission process for that year has already concluded and the following academic year (2024) is now ongoing.

However, I can share the minimum cutoff for 2023 with you so you can gauge the level for the previous year:

Overall CAT Percentile: 85

Sectional CAT Percentile: 50 (each section - QA, VARC, DILR)

Additional Points to Consider:

• The minimum cutoff is just the first step in the selection process. Shortlisted candidates also need to participate in Group Discussion and Personal Interview rounds.
• The cutoffs can vary slightly depending on the specific specialisation you are applying to (e.g.,  MBA-IB,  MBA-HR,  etc.).
• The minimum cutoff for 2024 might differ from 2023,  so be sure to check the official website or contact the university directly for the latest information.
