2. Complete new registration using basic details, a valid mobile number, and email ID.
3. Fill in the application form with personal, academic, and communication details.
4. Upload photograph, signature, and any other required documents in the specified format and size.
5. Pay the application fee through the available online payment modes.
6. Submit the form and download/print the confirmation page for your records.

Important Instructions

• The NTA Exam Calendar 2026-27 gives tentative dates only; it is not confirmation of final exam dates.
• Dates may change due to administrative, academic, statutory, logistical, or other unforeseen reasons, as clarified by NTA in the notice.
• Detailed notifications, application schedules, eligibility criteria, and exam patterns for each exam will be released separately and closer to the respective exam.
• Candidates should regularly check the official NTA website and the specific exam portal for updates on registration, admit card, exam city intimation, and results.
• Where two exams fall on overlapping or adjacent dates (for example, NIFT and SHRESHTA on the same tentative date, or AISSEE landing on the JEE Main buffer date), candidates appearing for more than one exam should track each notification separately to avoid a scheduling clash.
