Good news for students hoping to study design! BITS Design School will now accept scores from the UCEED 2026 exam for its Bachelor of Design (Honours) program. This means students who take UCEED in 2026 can use their exam results to apply for admission to BITS Design School.
Students interested in this program must complete their application for BITS Design School by February 1, 2026 . It is important to remember this deadline.
What is UCEED and B.Des?
UCEED stands for the Undergraduate Common Entrance Examination for Design. It is a national-level exam taken by students who want to get into top design colleges in India. By accepting UCEED scores, BITS Design School is making it easier for many design aspirants to apply for their program.
The Bachelor of Design (Honours) program, or B.Des (Honours) , is a full-time degree for students who want to build a career in design. This program teaches students different aspects of design, helping them develop creative and problem-solving skills needed in the design field.
How to Apply to BITS Design School with UCEED Scores
Here are the important steps for applying:
- Apply Online: Students must apply directly to BITS Design School through their official website. Do not apply through any other portal for BITS Design School admissions.
- Application Deadline: Make sure to submit your application by February 1, 2026 . This date is crucial for all applicants. Missing this deadline will mean you cannot apply for the 2026 intake.
- Use UCEED Details: When filling out the application form, you will need to provide your UCEED Registration Number or UCEED Roll Number . Keep this information ready when you start your application.
- Upload Scores Later: You do not need your UCEED scores at the time of application. You can upload your scores to the BITS Design School portal once they are officially announced. Only students who have applied by the February 1, 2026 deadline will be able to upload their scores later.
Selection Process Details
Getting into the B.Des program at BITS Design School involves a few steps:
- Shortlisting: After all applications are received and reviewed, BITS Design School will choose a group of students based on their applications and UCEED scores. These chosen students are 'shortlisted' for the next round.
- Portfolio Interview: Shortlisted students will then need to attend a portfolio interview . A 'portfolio' is a collection of your best creative work, such as drawings, sketches, designs, or other artistic projects. This interview helps the school understand your creative skills, thought process, and potential in the design field.
Important Point on Admissions
It is important to understand that BITS Design School has its own separate admission process. It is not part of the Joint Seat Allocation process . The Joint Seat Allocation process is a common system often used by other design institutes, including some IITs, and is handled by IIT Bombay. Therefore, you must apply to BITS Design School directly.
