CISCE ICSE, ISC 2027–28 Exam Registration Begins at cisceboard.org: Check Full Schedule and Key Guidelines

The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) has officially initiated the registration and confirmation process for the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE Class 10) and Indian School Certificate (ISC Class 12) examinations for the upcoming 2027 and 2028 academic cycles. Affiliated schools across the country and abroad can now access the official CISCE CAREERS portal at cisceboard.org to submit candidate lists and process new registrations within the specified deadlines.

The announcement brings a structured timeline for school administrators, requiring them to verify existing student data for the 2027 board examinations while simultaneously initiating fresh enrollments for the 2028 academic year.

Candidate Confirmation for ICSE & ISC 2027

For students set to appear in the ICSE and ISC board examinations in 2027, the confirmation window officially opened on August 5, 2026. Heads of affiliated institutions are required to carefully review, confirm, and finalize the list of eligible candidates.

• Without Late Fee: Schools can complete the candidate confirmation process through the portal from August 5 to September 15, 2026.

• With Late Fee: A extended grace period with an additional late fee will be active from September 16 to September 30, 2026.

The board has emphasized the importance of accuracy during candidate confirmation. In case minor corrections are required in a student’s biographical details or subject selections, school authorities must submit formal correction requests directly through the CAREERS portal, accompanied by necessary supporting verification documents.
