The National Testing Agency (NTA) has opened the correction window for the UGC NET December 2026 application form. Candidates who made errors while filling out their forms can now make permitted changes through the official website- ugcnet.nta.nic.in.
The correction facility opened on November 2 and will remain available until November 4, 2026, up to 11:50 pm. Applicants should check their details carefully and make any necessary corrections within the deadline.
The NTA has specified which fields can be edited and which details will remain unchanged. Candidates should review these rules before logging in, as the correction facility does not allow changes to every section of the application form.
Which Details Can Be Corrected In The UGC NET Application Form?
According to the NTA’s guidelines, candidates can make a correction in any one of the following three fields:
– Candidate’s name
– Father’s name
– Mother’s name
However, the following details cannot be modified through the correction window:
– Mobile number
– Email address
– Permanent and present addresses
– Photograph
– Signature
Candidates should therefore check the permitted correction carefully before submitting the revised form.
