UGC NET June 2026 Re-Exam Admit Cards Live: Crucial Checklist for English, Commerce, and Sociology Candidates

Published: Tuesday, September 8, 2026, 7:12 [IST]

Admit cards for the University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test (UGC NET) June 2026 re-exam are live today, 8 September. English and Commerce papers are scheduled on 9 September, while Sociology is on 10 September. Only these three subjects are affected; other June session papers remain unchanged. Candidates should immediately check exam city, shift, and reporting time printed on the admit card.

Download is through the National Testing Agency (NTA) UGC NET portal. Log in using your application number and date of birth or password, plus the security pin. Verify name, photograph, signature, subject code, medium, exam city, and shift. If the city-intimation slip was issued earlier, ensure both documents match.

How to download UGC NET re-exam admit card

Visit the official UGC NET portal and open the “Admit Card” link for the June 2026 re-exam. Enter application number and date of birth or password, then submit the security pin. Download the PDF and print two clear A4 copies. Keep a soft copy on your phone for reference, but carry printed copies to the centre.

UGC NET June 2026 re-exam schedule and shifts

English and Commerce will be held on 9 September in two shifts, as mentioned on the admit card. Sociology follows on 10 September, also in designated shifts. Reach the venue by the reporting time printed. Expect frisking and biometric attendance before entry. Gate closure rules are strict; late reporting leads to denial of entry.

Documents to carry and barred items for UGC NET

Carry your printed admit card, one original government photo ID, and a recent passport-size photo. Persons with Disabilities (PwD) must bring a valid certificate. Avoid mobile phones, smartwatches, earphones, calculators, books, notes, metallic accessories, wallets, and caps. Choose simple clothes with minimal metal. Bring a transparent water bottle if allowed on your admit card.

PwD and scribe rules for UGC NET re-exam

Eligible PwD candidates may avail a scribe and compensatory time as per NTA rules. Use the portal undertaking for a self-arranged scribe, or request support through the centre, if permitted. Both candidate and scribe must carry original IDs. Follow the specific instructions printed on your admit card.

What to do if your UGC NET admit card has errors

If your name, photo, signature, subject, or centre appears incorrect, raise a grievance through your candidate login. Also contact the NTA Help Desk and email the support address listed on the portal. Keep screenshots, emails, and call logs. Unless instructed otherwise, report with the issued admit card and valid ID.

For English, Commerce, and Sociology candidates, the next 48 hours are crucial. Re-check exam city, shift, and reporting time tonight. Pack documents, plan travel, and reach early to avoid gate-closure issues. Use official channels for any discrepancy. Focus revision on your paper syllabus, and sleep well before the test.
