The National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU) is India’s leading institution for forensic science, cyber security, criminology, law, and allied fields. Many students after Class 12 ask: “Do I need CUET to get admission in NFSU?” The answer is yes — CUET (Common University Entrance Test) is now the main exam for most undergraduate and integrated programs at NFSU.
Why CUET is Required for NFSU
- From 2026 onwards, CUET UG is compulsory for admission to most UG courses.
- Earlier, NFSU conducted its own exam (NFAT), but that has been discontinued.
