The National Testing Agency (NTA) has issued a critical public notice dated 07 April 2026 for candidates appearing in the Common University Entrance Test [CUET (UG)-2026].
During the verification of online applications, the NTA observed inconsistencies in photo data. Specifically, for candidates who registered using identity proofs other than the Aadhaar Card, the live photograph captured during registration does not match the records available with the UIDAI database.
To ensure transparency and prevent impersonation, the NTA is giving affected candidates a final opportunity to verify their identity.
Historically, the CUET (UG) has revolutionized higher education admissions across India. It serves as a unified platform for admission to all Central Universities and several state, private, and deemed universities.
Securing your eligibility and ensuring hassle-free admit card generation is your first step toward getting into premier institutions like Delhi University (DU), Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), Banaras Hindu University (BHU), and many others.
Failing to rectify this photo mismatch in time could lead to the rejection of your candidature, wasting months of hard work. Take immediate action to safeguard your career prospects.

The stamp and signature of the attesting authority must be completely visible. Ensure the attesting authority signs in such a way that the signature runs across both the paper and the pasted photograph. Failure to format this correctly may result in the rejection of your verification document.
Always verify all details on the official government website before submitting your application.
