Hello Aspirant,

In an admission process there are seat reserved or divided for home state students which means students who have passed their 11th and 12th from that state itself are eligible for that seat. Eligibility criteria is different for different admission process. The students who are from that particular state in which the university is present will get first chance for admission into it and that university is home state university for them.

The cut off is not affected but the students of home state are given first preference and their admission is done first in the university.

Regards.
