The Central University of Karnataka (CUK) has shared the schedule for physical reporting for BTech admissions for the 2026-27 academic year on its official website, cuk.ac.in.

According to the official notice from CUK, students who have been allotted a BTech seat must personally visit the university campus between August 13 and August 18, 2026. This same reporting period applies to both students who got their seats through JoSAA and those who got them through CSAB for the current admission cycle. The Central University of Karnataka is a central university located in Kadaganchi, Kalaburagi district of Karnataka. It takes part in JoSAA and CSAB counselling as a Government Funded Technical Institute (GFTI) for its BTech courses.
