Kota University has declared the Rajasthan State Eligibility Test (SET) 2026 result. A total of 1,77,901 candidates registered for the exam, of whom 1,39,383 appeared. Only 9,191 candidates passed, a success rate of 6.59 per cent.

Successful candidates become eligible for assistant professor posts in 34 government universities, 100 private universities and about 2,000 colleges across Rajasthan. Passing the exam does not guarantee appointment, it only fulfils the eligibility requirement.
For geography and physical education, which were held in two shifts, a scaling formula was used to ensure parity in marks. Subject- and category-wise cut-offs vary, with commerce requiring the highest scores: 74.67 per cent for general, 71.33 per cent for EWS, 72 per cent for OBC, 66.67 per cent for SC and 64 per cent for ST. E-certificates and scorecards will be available on the university website two weeks after the result.
The 6.59 per cent pass rate means fewer than 10,000 candidates cleared the gate for thousands of potential posts, but the supply of eligible applicants still far exceeds any likely recruitment cycle. Kota University has not announced a recruitment drive or timeline, leaving candidates with a qualification that has no immediate next step. The scaling formula used for geography and physical education may draw scrutiny if candidates contest the parity between shifts. The wait now is for individual universities to announce actual vacancy notifications.
