According to Kumar, 46 central universities, 32 state universities, and 20 deemed-to-be-universities have registered to utilize CUET UG scores for admission into their undergraduate programs. Ninety-eight private universities and six government institutions have also enrolled this year.

Kumar further outlined the measures implemented by the higher education regulator in the country to facilitate the Common University Entrance Test for Undergraduates (CUET UG) 2024
To improve the overall testing experience for CUET UG 2024 candidates, adjustments have been implemented, including moderating the difficulty level of the entrance exam, enhancing accessibility, and minimizing logistical challenges. These measures are aimed at creating a stress-free testing environment.
