The National Testing Agency (NTA) has confirmed that the rescheduled CUET UG 2026 sessions will be held on June 6 and June 7, 2026, following the technical glitch that disrupted the morning shift on May 30. Admit cards for the rescheduled sessions are expected to be made available very shortly at cuet.nta.nic.in.
The disruption, caused by a server failure at technology partner TCS iON, had left 3,765 candidates unable to appear for their examination despite completing biometric registration at their centres on May 30.
