FAQs
Ques. An IPU CET BCA candidate was asking on Quora, “What rank is needed for a BCA in IPU? I am a Delhi general candidate.”
Ans. For Delhi General candidates, a rank under 2000 is needed for good/top BCA colleges (VIPS, JIMS, MSIT, IITM) in the early rounds. A rank of 5000-6000 usually gets a decent IPU BCA seat in later rounds.
Ques. I got 2076 rank in the BCA CET test of IP University, which is the best college that I can get?
Ans. With a 2076 rank (Delhi General), you can get good colleges like IITM Janakpuri, Fairfield (Shift I), Ideal Institute, or Banarsidas Chandiwala in early rounds; JIMS Rohini (Shift II) is possible in later rounds.
Ques. I got an 870 rank outside the Delhi general category IPU CET BCA. Can I get VIPS in the spot round?
Ans. With an 870 rank (Outside Delhi General) in IPU CET BCA, getting VIPS Pitampura (especially Shift I) in the spot round is unlikely. VIPS is highly competitive for Outside Delhi candidates — its Outside Delhi General closing ranks for BCA typically stay under 400–700 in early rounds.
Ques. Will IP University give admission to students who have not given the IPU CET but have good marks in the CUET Exam?
Ans. No, IP University does not generally give regular admission to BCA for students who have not appeared in IPU CET, even if they have good CUET marks. Primary admission is through the IPU CET merit.
Ques. Is BCA still in demand?
Ans. Yes, BCA is still in demand in 2026 due to strong growth in IT, software development, data analytics, and AI roles. Focus on skills, projects, and internships for better placements (starting ₹3-6 LPA).
