Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification
- Candidates should generally hold a master's degree or equivalent postgraduate qualification from a recognised university or institution.
- Applicants are normally required to secure at least 55% marks in the qualifying postgraduate examination.
- Relaxation in minimum qualifying marks may apply to reserved-category candidates under the applicable CG SET rules.
- Candidates awaiting their final postgraduate result may be eligible provisionally, subject to the conditions specified in the detailed notification.
- The SET subject selected by the candidate should ordinarily correspond to the subject studied at the postgraduate level.
Age Limit
- There is generally no upper age limit for appearing in the State Eligibility Test for assistant professor eligibility.
- Candidates should read the detailed notification for any subject-specific or category-related conditions.
- Qualifying CG SET does not itself guarantee appointment, as recruitment rules may prescribe separate age and eligibility requirements.
Fees
- The examination fee is payable online during the application process.
- Fee amounts may vary by category and domicile status.
- Candidates should consult the official notification or application record for the applicable fee and payment status.
- Bank or online transaction charges may be payable separately, where applicable.
Selection Process
- Paper I: Candidates appear for a general paper assessing teaching and research aptitude, reasoning, comprehension, communication and related abilities.
- Paper II: Applicants take a subject-specific paper based on the discipline chosen in the application form.
- Result and eligibility verification: Qualification is determined from the prescribed aggregate performance in both papers, followed by verification of educational and category documents where required.
CG SET is a qualifying examination rather than a direct recruitment drive. Successful candidates must separately apply for assistant professor vacancies advertised by eligible colleges, universities or government departments.
