Dibrugarh University Entrance Exam Eligibility 2026: Age Limit & Marks
Admission to Dibrugarh University programmes is course-specific, and there is no single universal percentage rule for all UG or PG courses. Eligibility is defined separately for UG, PG, and Integrated programmes as per university regulations.
Correct General Eligibility (Verified)

Minimum marks are usually 45–50% (General category) and 40–45% (reserved categories), but some departments may require higher cut-offs. - Entrance exam requirement (DUPGET/other tests): There is no fixed percentage like 50% for “entrance eligibility” across all courses. Entrance tests are programme-specific, and eligibility depends on departmental rules + minimum degree qualification.

For Five-Year Integrated PG courses (Anthropology, Applied Geology, Assamese, etc.):
- General category: Minimum 50–60% in 10+2 (varies by department)
