UP Board sets October 26 deadline for 940 schools to submit Class 9-12 student lists

The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has announced October 26, 2026, as the final deadline for 940 schools across Uttar Pradesh to submit student lists for Classes 9 to 12 for the 2026-27 academic session. This directive, issued by the board secretary on October 23, 2026, comes after these schools failed to generate and submit the required lists despite an earlier extension.

The affected schools are now granted an additional four days to complete the pending process, which includes advance registration for Classes 9 and 11, and exam applications for Classes 10 and 12. The board has stated that principals of schools failing to meet this final deadline will be held accountable.

Background to the Deadline

The UPMSP initially set October 15, 2026, as the deadline for schools to submit the required student lists. This deadline was next extended to October 22, 2026, for 5,905 schools to submit student lists for the UP Board Examination 2027. However, 940 schools did not comply with this extended deadline, prompting the board to issue a final notice.

The registration window for Class 10 and Class 12 students for the UP Board 2027 exams opened on June 20, 2026. The process involved several stages, including admission and fee collection, fee deposit through challan, uploading student details, and verification. The final submission of candidate lists and documents was originally scheduled for September 30, 2026.

Submission Procedure and Consequences

For the 940 schools, the process requires them to generate and download candidate lists from the board’s official portal. Following this, a copy of the candidate list, along with the challan, must be submitted to the office of the District School Inspector by the October 26, 2026, deadline. The UPMSP has explicitly stated that school principals will face accountability if the process is not completed within this timeframe.

This final extension aims to ensure all eligible students are registered for the upcoming academic session and board examinations. The board’s consistent efforts to provide extensions highlight what’s key about timely data submission for administrative planning and examination logistics.

UP Board 2027 Examination Schedule Announced

Along with the deadline for student lists, the UPMSP has also released the schedule for the 2027 examinations for Class 10 and Intermediate (Class 12). Both examinations are slated to be conducted from February 5 to February 24, 2027. The examinations will be held in two shifts daily.

The morning session for the 2027 exams is scheduled from 8:30 am to 11:45 am, while the afternoon session will take place from 2 pm to 5:15 pm. This early announcement of the exam schedule provides clarity for students and schools regarding the upcoming academic year’s assessment timeline.
