The CUET UG 2026 scorecard is live at cuet.nta.nic.in — to fix login issues, enter your 12-digit Application Number and Date of Birth exactly as registered during the application process.
NTA released the CUET UG 2026 scorecard on June 26, 2026. Most login failures happen because students enter an incorrect application number, a mismatched date of birth, or face server overload right after the scorecard goes live. This guide covers every fix, including how to recover a forgotten application number and resolve PDF download errors.
- Scorecard portal: cuet.nta.nic.in/score-card-for-cuetug-2026/ (Active)
- Login requires your 12-digit NTA Application Number and Date of Birth (DD/MM/YYYY).
- Your CUET UG 2026 roll number is not the same as your Application Number — the scorecard portal only accepts the Application Number.
- If you see a server error, retry during off-peak hours — before 8 AM or after 10 PM.
- Clear browser cache and switch to Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox if the scorecard PDF does not load.

What You Need to Log In to the CUET UG 2026 Scorecard Portal
Two credentials are required to access the CUET UG 2026 scorecard. Both must match exactly what you entered during registration.
| Credential | Details |
|---|---|
| Application Number | 12-digit NTA Application Number assigned at form submission. This is different from the roll number printed on your admit card — the scorecard portal accepts only the Application Number. |
| Date of Birth | Enter in DD/MM/YYYY format exactly as submitted during registration. A common mistake is swapping the month and date fields (e.g., entering 04/07 instead of 07/04). |
Your CUET UG 2026 roll number is not accepted on the scorecard login page. Only the 12-digit NTA Application Number works. If you are unsure which number to use, check your NTA confirmation email from the time of form submission.

Common CUET UG 2026 Scorecard Login Errors and How to Fix Them
Below are the most frequent errors students face on the CUET UG 2026 scorecard portal, with step-by-step fixes for each.
| Error | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Invalid Credentials | Wrong application number or incorrect DOB format | Paste the application number directly from your confirmation email instead of typing it. Confirm the DOB is in DD/MM/YYYY format — not DD-MM-YYYY or YYYY/MM/DD. |
| Server Error or Page Not Found | High traffic on the portal immediately after scorecard release | Wait 30 minutes and retry. The portal responds fastest during off-peak hours — before 8 AM or after 10 PM. |
| Scorecard PDF blank or not loading | Browser compatibility issue or missing PDF plugin | Clear browser cache using Ctrl+Shift+Delete, switch to Chrome or Firefox, disable any ad-blocker extensions, then retry. |
| Captcha error | Captcha typed incorrectly or has expired | Click the refresh icon next to the captcha field to generate a new one. Captcha is case-sensitive — type it exactly as displayed on screen. |
| Login loop (redirected back to login page) | Browser cookies are blocked or restricted | Enable cookies for cuet.nta.nic.in in your browser settings, or try opening the portal in a private or incognito window. |
| Scorecard button greyed out | Session has timed out or portal is under maintenance | Log out completely, clear cookies, and log in again. If the button stays greyed out, the portal may be under scheduled maintenance — retry after one hour. |
| Record Not Found | Incorrect application number entered or registration was incomplete | Verify you are using the CUET UG 2026 application number. If your registration was not completed or was rejected, contact the NTA helpdesk for guidance. |
If none of these steps resolve the problem, email cuet-ug@nta.ac.in with your application number, registered mobile number, and a screenshot of the error message. NTA typically responds within 2 to 3 working days.
What Is Shown on the CUET UG 2026 Scorecard
Once you log in successfully, your CUET UG 2026 scorecard will display the following information.
- Student name and 12-digit Application Number
- NTA Score (normalised score) for each subject or domain paper attempted
- Subject-wise raw score and percentile rank
- Exam date, shift, and exam centre details
- Category (General / OBC-NCL / SC / ST / EWS / PwD)
- Total questions attempted and number of correct answers per subject
The NTA Score is a normalised score, not your raw marks. NTA uses a statistical process to adjust for varying difficulty levels across different exam shifts and dates. Universities use the NTA Score — not raw marks — to prepare CUET UG 2026 merit lists and rank students for admission.

Ques. Why does the CUET UG 2026 scorecard portal show an invalid credentials error?
Ans. This error means your Application Number or Date of Birth does not match NTA records. Make sure you are entering the 12-digit Application Number (not your roll number), that your DOB is in DD/MM/YYYY format, and try pasting the application number from your confirmation email to avoid typing errors.
Ques. Can I log in to the CUET UG 2026 scorecard portal using my roll number?
Ans. No. The scorecard portal requires the 12-digit NTA Application Number. The roll number printed on your admit card is a different identifier and will not be accepted on the scorecard login page.
Ques. The CUET UG 2026 scorecard PDF is not opening. What should I do?
Ans. Clear your browser cache and cookies using Ctrl+Shift+Delete, switch to Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, and disable any ad-blocker extensions. If the PDF still does not open, right-click the download link, choose Save As, and open the downloaded file with a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat.
Ques. What is the NTA Score shown on the CUET UG 2026 scorecard?
Ans. The NTA Score is a normalised score that adjusts for difficulty differences across exam shifts — it is not the same as your raw marks. Universities use the NTA Score, not raw marks, to rank applicants and prepare their CUET UG 2026 merit lists for admissions.
