The University School of Information, Communication and Technology, New Delhi, is one of the competitive institutes for computer science and information technology-related courses among the prominent government engineering institutes under Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU). Admissions to the major programs are conducted primarily through centralised counselling based on national-level entrance exams and merit rankings.
The cut-off at USICT is not fixed but varies annually based on various factors such as the number of applicants, JEE Main performance, counselling participation, seat availability, reservation categories, and branch demand. Branches like computer science engineering, artificial intelligence, and information technology tend to have higher cut-offs compared to other branches, owing to their strong placement records and industry demand.

Students who have secured a good rank in JEE Main, participated in counselling in a timely manner, and approached their branch selection with a realistic attitude are more likely to secure admission, especially in high-demand technical courses.
The expected JEE Main ranks for Computer Science Engineering admission at USICT in the Delhi region for 2026 are approximately between 15,000 and 25,000. Information Technology and Artificial Intelligence branches may also witness comparatively high closing ranks, whereas Electronics & Communication Engineering could be comparatively moderate.
No. The USICT cut-off changes annually based on the competition among applicants, performance in JEE Main, demand for various branches, counselling participation, reservation categories, and available seats.
Yes. Admissions to B.Tech programs at USICT are conducted primarily through JEE Main and GGSIPU counselling. Most MCA admissions are made based on NIMCET scores, while GATE scores or merit requirements may be considered for M.Tech admissions.
Students can improve their admission prospects by securing a good rank in JEE Main, actively participating in counselling rounds, applying early, keeping multiple branch preferences open, and paying attention to later counselling rounds, as closing ranks may be relatively relaxed depending on vacancy levels.
