The National Testing Agency (NTA) has officially extended the registration deadline for the Common University Entrance Test for Postgraduate Programmes (CUET PG) 2026 to 20 January 2026. Aspirants who have not yet completed their online application forms now have additional time until 11:50 PM on the revised last date to submit their details and pay the examination fee.
Revised Registration Timeline
Earlier, the last date to submit the CUET PG 2026 application form was 14 January 2026, but following requests from candidates, the NTA announced the extension to 20 January 2026. Along with the application form, the deadline for payment of the examination fee has also been extended to the same date and time. After the registration period ends, NTA will open an application correction window from 23 January to 25 January 2026, allowing candidates to make modifications to their submitted forms, such as personal or academic details.
