🧠 City Intimation Slip vs. Admit Card: What’s the Difference?

Don’t get confused! NTA releases these documents in two phases to make things easier for students:

1. Advance City Intimation Slip: Released first (expected mid-March). This only tells you the City where your exam center will be located and your exact Exam Date. It helps you book train/bus tickets and plan your accommodation in advance. This is NOT your admit card and will not grant you entry into the hall.
2. Admit Card / Hall Ticket: Released 3 to 4 days before your scheduled exam day. This contains the exact Exam Center Name, Full Address, Shift Timing (Morning/Evening), and Reporting Time. You must print and carry this document to the exam hall!

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

You can log in during this limited period to edit specific fields like your category, educational details, and paper medium.

Q: What mandatory items do I need to carry to the exam center?
