AP EAMCET 2026 hall tickets are officially out today at cets.apsche.ap.gov.in for the exams starting May 12. Students must download their admit cards using their registration number and carry a printed, attested application form to the test center.

The Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU) Kakinada, on behalf of the Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE), has released the AP EAMCET (EAPCET) 2026 Hall Ticket today, April 28, 2026.

Candidates who have registered for the Engineering, Agriculture, and Pharmacy common entrance tests can now access their admit cards via the official portal at cets.apsche.ap.gov.in. The hall ticket is a mandatory document; without a printed copy, candidates will not be permitted to enter the examination hall.

AP EAMCET 2026: Key Dates and Exam Schedule

The 2026 session of the AP EAPCET is set to be a massive exercise, conducted entirely as a Computer Based Test (CBT). To manage the volume of students, JNTU Kakinada has spread the exams across two weeks in May. This staggered approach ensures that the digital infrastructure remains stable for all participants.

The Engineering stream will take the lead, with exams scheduled for May 12, 13, 14, 15, and 18. After a short break, the Agriculture and Pharmacy students will sit for their exams on May 19 and 20.

The tests are held in two distinct shifts to accommodate everyone:

Morning Shift: 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Afternoon Shift: 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM

The exam pattern remains consistent: a 3-hour paper with 160 multiple-choice questions. For Engineering, this includes 80 questions in Mathematics and 40 each in Physics and Chemistry. Agriculture students will tackle 80 questions in Biology (Botany & Zoology) alongside Physics and Chemistry. There is no negative marking, encouraging students to attempt all questions.

How to Download AP EAMCET 2026 Hall Ticket?

Downloading your hall ticket is a straightforward process, but you must have your registration details ready. The portal is designed to handle high traffic, yet it is best to download your copy early to avoid last-minute technical lags.

Official Portal: Navigate to the centralized admissions website at cets.apsche.ap.gov.in.
Select Exam: Click on the “AP EAPCET – 2026” tab to enter the dedicated entrance test section.
Access Link: Find and click the link titled “Download Hall Ticket” (or “Download Engineering & Pharmacy Hall Tickets”).
Login Credentials: You will be prompted to enter three specific pieces of information:
- Registration Number (or Payment Reference ID)
- Qualifying Exam Hall Ticket Number (your 10+2/Intermediate Roll No)
- Date of Birth (in DD/MM/YYYY format)
Review and Save: Once your admit card appears, check that your photograph and signature are clearly visible. Save the PDF and print at least two copies—one for the exam day and one as a backup.

Important Instructions for Exam Day

The exam centers follow strict protocols to ensure a fair testing environment. Candidates must arrive at least two hours before their shift starts to allow time for frisking and biometric registration. The registration desk closes exactly five minutes before the exam begins; even a 60-second delay could result in being barred from the center.

Must-Carry Items:

Printed Hall Ticket: A physical copy is mandatory; digital versions on phones will not be accepted.
Filled-in Online Application Form: This is a specific requirement for AP EAMCET. It must have a recent color photograph affixed and should be attested by a Gazetted Officer or the Principal of your college.
Valid Photo ID: Original Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, Voter ID, or Passport for identity verification.
Writing Materials: A simple ballpoint pen (blue or black) for rough work. Rough paper will be provided at the seat.

Prohibited Items:

Leave your bags, calculators, log tables, smartwatches, and mobile phones at home or with a guardian. The centers do not typically provide storage lockers. Any candidate found with electronic devices or unauthorized material will be disqualified immediately.

What To Do In Case of Errors?

It is vital to “proofread” your hall ticket as soon as you download it. Check for spelling errors in your name, incorrect gender/category markings, or a blurred photograph. Any mismatch between your hall ticket and your ID proof can lead to complications at the exam center.

If you find any discrepancies, do not try to fix them yourself (e.g., by writing on the printout). Instead, contact the AP EAPCET Help Desk immediately. You can reach the officials via email at helpdeskapeapcet2026@apsche.org or call the helpline numbers provided on the “Contact Us” section of the official website. For “Category-1” corrections (like name, date of birth, or signature), you may need to submit supporting documents like your SSC marks list for verification.

Following the exams, the Preliminary Answer Key is expected on May 23, with the final results and rank cards slated for release on June 1, 2026.
