The National Testing Agency (NTA) has reopened the online registration window for the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) UG 2026 as a one-time special facility in response to candidate requests. This is your last opportunity to apply if you missed the earlier deadlines.
Key Dates for Registration (Reopened Window):
Reopening date: February 23, 2026 (afternoon)
Last date to submit online application form and pay fee: February 26, 2026 (up to 11:50 PM)
Important Points:
This is a final, limited window-no further extensions are expected.
No correction facility will be provided after submission, so fill the form carefully, double-check all details (personal info, subject choices, exam city preferences), and review before final payment.
