    Calcutta University does have entrance exams for certain programs:

    • For admission to MA, MSc, MCom, MBA, and LLM programs, students must take the Calcutta University Entrance Test.
    • For PhD programs, Calcutta University conducts a Research Eligibility Test (RET).
    • For admission to the BA LLB 5-year program, Calcutta University requires candidates to take an entrance exam.

    However, for undergraduate (UG) programs like BA, BSc, BCom, BBA, BTech, and BCA, admission is based on academic merit and there is no separate entrance exam required.
