MHT CET Registration 2026 Date: Application Start Timeline

MHT CET Registration 2026 is expected to begin shortly, with the Maharashtra State Common Entrance Test Cell likely to activate the application link on its official portal in the coming days. The entrance test serves as a key gateway for admission to engineering, pharmacy, and allied undergraduate courses offered by colleges across Maharashtra. The CET Cell has already announced the MHT CET 2026 examination dates for both PCM and PCB groups. Along with the exam schedule, the authority has confirmed that Aadhaar number and APAAR ID will be mandatory for completing the registration process this year. This requirement will apply uniformly to all applicants.

From the academic year 2026 onwards, the MHT CET examination will be conducted in two sessions, spread across April and May.
