The National Testing Agency (NTA) has officially released the CUET UG 2026 admit cards today, May 6, 2026. Candidates who registered for the Common University Entrance Test can now download their hall tickets from the official portal at cuet.nta.nic.in. This year, a staggering 15.68 lakh candidates have registered for the exam, which is scheduled to take place from May 11 to May 31, 2026, in Computer Based Test (CBT) mode across 35 shifts nationwide.
Centre Re-Allocation for Affected Students
In a significant move to assist students, the NTA has opened a Centre Re-Allocation window for approximately 3.4% of candidates who were allotted examination centres far from their preferred cities. Affected students can apply for a change in State, City, Shift, or Date on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration window for re-allocation is active until May 07, 2026 (11:50 PM). Revised admit cards will be issued to these candidates shortly after the window closes.
