A vice-chancellor of one of the participating universities confirmed, “The first meeting of the admission committee will be held on November 14. The exam dates will be finalized that day. As in previous years, all nine universities will remain in the cluster system.”
Initially, the Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) had considered holding its own separate exam but later decided to stay within the cluster framework.
BAU Registrar and Central Admission Committee Member Secretary Dr. Md. Helal Uddin said, “The exam will be held in the same format as last year. The vice-chancellor earlier said if the cluster continues for five consecutive years, we’ll remain part of it—otherwise, we’ll go independent.”
The nine universities under the agricultural cluster for the 2025–26 session are:
Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU)
Gazipur Agricultural University (GAgriU)
Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University
Patuakhali Science and Technology University
Chittagong Veterinary and Animal Sciences University
Sylhet Agricultural University
Khulna Agricultural University
Habiganj Agricultural University
Kurigram Agricultural University
The upcoming meeting will finalize the admission schedule and preparation guidelines, which will be vital for prospective students.
