NTA Examination Calendar — December 2026 to March 2027
National Testing Agency (NTA) · Post Date:
Short Information
NTA has published its examination calendar for the December 2026 cycle through March 2027, giving candidates the proposed conduct period for UGC NET, Joint CSIR-UGC NET, JEE (Main) Session 1 and CUET (PG) well before the individual information bulletins are out. NTA is explicit that this calendar is not itself a notification for any exam — application windows, admit cards and city intimation for each exam will still be announced separately — and that every date here is tentative and can change.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this calendar mean applications are open for these exams?
No. NTA's notice states in clear terms that publishing this calendar does not constitute a notification for any particular examination — a separate detailed Information Bulletin and application schedule will be issued for each exam closer to its date.
Can these dates change?
Yes. NTA describes every date in the calendar as tentative and subject to change for administrative, academic, statutory or logistical reasons, so candidates should keep checking the official NTA website and the relevant exam portal.
Where can I find the application dates for UGC NET December 2026 or JEE (Main) 2027?
NTA says it will issue examination-specific notices separately at the appropriate time on www.nta.ac.in and the respective exam's own portal.
