NID DAT 2024 Cut Off

The qualifying cut-off for the M.Des DAT Prelims has been released. Candidates can check their result and qualifying status on the NID DAT 2024 (Prelims) result portal. The cut-off varies by category.

The final admission cut-off for M.Des will be released in July 2024. The admission cut-off for the B.Des program is expected in the first week of August 2024. This cut-off will be based on the rank and score of the last admitted candidate. Similar to M.Des, the B.Des cut-off will also be category-specific.

The cut-off is the minimum rank or score required for admission. Scoring below it will disqualify a candidate. The qualifying cut-off for DAT Prelims is different from the final admission cut-off. The admission cut-off considers factors like rank, available seats, total applications, and the preferred campus.

NID DAT 2024 cut off for all stages of the NID Selection Process is usually released separately. Candidates whose names appear in the final NID DAT Merit list are shortlisted for admission into NID campuses. Candidates scoring above the cut-offs will be invited for NID DAT 2024 Counselling.
