University admissions in Chhattisgarh 2026

Chhattisgarh's higher-education system is anchored by the central Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya (Bilaspur), state universities (Pt Ravishankar Shukla, IGKV Raipur, Chhattisgarh Swami Vivekanand Technical University, Atal Bihari Vajpayee Vishwavidyalaya), and Hidayatullah National Law University (HNLU). The state also hosts IIT Bhilai (NIT Raipur is a separate central institution).

Engineering admissions in Chhattisgarh use the state CG PET (Pre-Engineering Test) for state seats and JEE Main for IITs/NITs. HNLU admits via CLAT. Medical admissions follow NEET UG. Most state universities admit through merit-based processes. CG PPHT covers pharmacy and CG PAT covers agriculture.
