The registration window for the Gujarat Common Entrance Test (GUJCET) 2026 is set to close today, January 6, 2026. The Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board (GSEB), which conducts the exam, will not accept applications after the deadline. This state-level entrance test is crucial for students aiming to secure seats in engineering, diploma, and pharmacy undergraduate programs across government and private colleges in Gujarat.
Last-Minute Application Process and Key Dates
Aspiring candidates who have not yet applied must visit the official GSEB or GUJCET website immediately to complete the process. The board had previously extended the deadline from December 30, 2025. To apply, students need to register with basic details, fill in their personal and Class 12 academic information, upload a photograph and signature, select an exam centre, and pay the fee.
The GUJCET 2026 exam is scheduled for March 29, 2026. Admit cards are expected to be released in early March. All official updates will be posted on the exam's dedicated website.
Understanding GUJCET 2026 Eligibility and Selection
The GUJCET is an annual examination that serves as a gateway for professional courses in the state. During the admission and counselling process, a candidate's GUJCET scores are combined with their Class 12 marks to determine final eligibility and ranking.
Students who are appearing for their Class 12 board exams in 2026 or have already passed are eligible to apply, provided they meet the required subject combinations and other criteria specified by the board.
Application Fee and Payment Methods
Candidates must pay an application fee of Rs 350 to complete their registration. The payment can be made online using net banking, debit card, or credit card. Alternatively, students have the option to pay through an SBI bank challan, as per the official notification.
After successful submission, applicants are advised to download and save the confirmation page and payment receipt for future reference.
