BHU PG 2026 Counselling Documents Required for Admission Reporting

Students allotted a seat in BHU PG 2026 must carry all original documents along with self-attested photocopies to the admission reporting counter at Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi to complete enrolment.

Banaras Hindu University (BHU) admits students to its postgraduate programmes on the basis of CUET PG scores through the official portal bhucuetpg.samarth.edu.in. After seat allotment is confirmed, physical reporting at BHU campus is mandatory to lock in the seat. Missing even one required document at the reporting counter can lead to cancellation of the allotted seat, so preparing a complete document folder well in advance is essential.

• Physical document verification is conducted at BHU campus, Varanasi during the reporting window published in the allotment letter.
• Carry originals of every document along with at least 4 to 6 self-attested photocopies of each.
• The BHU PG 2026 seat allotment letter downloaded from bhucuetpg.samarth.edu.in is the primary reporting document.
• Reserved-category certificates must be issued by a competent authority (District Magistrate or equivalent) and must be valid as per government norms.
• Students with a gap year in education must carry a self-declaration or gap certificate covering the break period.

How to Prepare Your Document Set for BHU PG 2026 Reporting

Organising documents before arriving at the BHU reporting counter saves time and reduces the risk of rejection. Follow the steps below to be fully ready on reporting day.

1. Download and print your seat allotment letter from bhucuetpg.samarth.edu.in as soon as allotment results are announced and keep multiple printouts.
2. Collect all original documents from the checklist above and verify that your name, date of birth, and other personal details are consistent across every document.
3. Make 6 sets of self-attested photocopies of each document. Write "Self-Attested" and sign each copy in your own hand.
4. Get the anti-ragging undertaking signed by both yourself and a parent or guardian before reporting day. The format is available on the BHU admissions portal.
5. Renew category certificates if needed — OBC-NCL and EWS certificates must reflect the current financial year; visit your district office well before the reporting date.
6. Carry extra passport photographs (at least 10 to 12) since individual departments may ask for additional copies beyond what the main counter requires.
7. Organise everything in a clear-pocket file or folder, arranged in the same order as the checklist, so the admission committee can verify documents efficiently.

Students who paid the admission fee online must print the payment receipt from the official portal and keep it at the top of the document folder for quick access at the counter.
