ZGC B.Sc FAQs
Ques. UGCAP 2026 registration is ongoing — what is the last date to apply for B.Sc at ZGC?
Ans. Calicut University UGCAP 2026 registration is currently open through June 2026. The exact closing date is published at admission.uoc.ac.in and changes each year, so candidates should register immediately without waiting for the last date. Enter your 10+2 details, upload documents, and add ZGC Kozhikode as a preferred college before the window closes. First seat allotment is expected in June 2026.
Ques. Which B.Sc stream at ZGC has the best career options — Physics, Chemistry, or Mathematics?
Ans. All three open strong pathways, but the direction differs. B.Sc Physics is best if you aim for ISRO, DRDO, BARC, or M.Sc Physics at IITs via JAM. B.Sc Chemistry suits pharmaceutical, analytical lab, and M.Sc Chemistry roles. B.Sc Mathematics is strongest for finance, data analytics, and competitive exams (banking, SSC, CAT). Choose based on your preferred higher study path rather than a general "best" ranking.
Ques. Is UGCAP 2026 allotment competitive for B.Sc seats at ZGC Kozhikode?
Ans. Yes, UGCAP allotment to ZGC is merit-based and competitive. ZGC is a well-established NAAC Grade A institution in Kozhikode, and popular science streams like Mathematics and Physics attract many applicants with high 10+2 marks. The higher your aggregate, the better your chance of getting your preferred stream. Register early and include multiple college preferences as backup to avoid missing allotment.
Ques. Can students from Kerala with Arts or Commerce background apply for B.Sc at ZGC?

Eligibility is strictly based on 10+2 science stream with relevant subject combinations.

Stream-wise paths: Physics graduates often target IIT JAM or BARC OCES; Mathematics graduates target M.Sc Statistics or MBA; Biology stream graduates target M.Sc Biotechnology, M.Sc Botany/Zoology, or ICAR NET for research.
