Aspirants planning to pursue a career in hospitality can begin their NCHMCT JEE Preparation ahead of time, as the official notification for the exam is expected to be released in December 2026. The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts the National Council for Hotel Management and Catering Technology Joint Entrance Examination (NCHMCT JEE) for admission to the B.Sc. in Hospitality and Hotel Administration, jointly offered by the National Council for Hotel Management (NCHM) and IGNOU.
NCHMCT JEE 2027: Expected Notification and Timeline
