CBSE CTET 2026 Application Correction Window Closes June 18 — Edit Now at ctet.nic.in Before It's Too Late
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is shutting the CTET 2026 application correction window on June 18, 2026 — and if you have not made your edits yet, today is your absolute last chance. Candidates who already submitted the CTET September 2026 application form must log in immediately at the official website ctet.nic.in to make any permitted corrections before the link goes offline permanently.
Once CBSE closes the CTET correction portal, no further modification requests will be entertained under any circumstances. This is a hard deadline, and the board has made it explicitly clear in its official notice that no individual extensions will be granted.
Why the CTET 2026 Correction Window Matters
Errors in your CTET application form — a misspelled name, wrong date of birth, incorrect category, or wrong paper selection — can lead to serious problems on exam day, including rejection of your admit card or disqualification. The CTET 2026 correction window is your only official opportunity to fix such mistakes. Missing this window means you will have no recourse, regardless of the nature of the error.
CTET September 2026 is scheduled for September 6, 2026. With roughly 11 weeks remaining, this is the right time to double-check every detail in your submitted form before it gets frozen permanently.

What is CTET 2026 — Exam Overview
The Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) is a national-level teacher eligibility exam conducted by CBSE twice a year. CTET September 2026 will be held on September 6, 2026, to determine the eligibility of candidates aspiring to teach in Classes 1 to 8 in central government schools.
Institutions that accept CTET scores include Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs), Navodaya Vidyalayas (NVs), Central Tibetan Schools, and other centrally administered school bodies. CTET qualification is also increasingly recognized for state government teaching posts in several states.
