When applying for the SSC CGL 2026 exam, candidates are given the option to select their preferred test center locations, with the flexibility to choose up to three centers. It's important to make these choices thoughtfully because SSC assigns centers on a first-come-first-serve basis. Once assigned, requests for center changes won't be accommodated later, regardless of the circumstances. Additionally, candidates should be aware that the Commission reserves the right to cancel any examination center and may require candidates from that center to appear at another location. They can also redirect candidates from one center to another if necessary. Therefore, it's crucial to choose your exam center accurately to avoid any inconvenience or last-minute changes.
Some important exam day guidelines for candidates are as follows:
