Rashtriya Military Schools CET 2026 correction window closes today, October 28

The National Testing Agency (NTA) has activated the application correction window for the Rashtriya Military Schools Common Entrance Test (RMS CET) 2026. Registered candidates have until 11:50 PM on October 28, 2026, to rectify mistakes in their submitted online application forms via the official NTA website, exams.nta.nic.in/rmscet.

This correction facility, available for two days from October 27 to October 28, 2026, follows requests from candidates seeking to amend details in their applications. The RMS CET 2026 is scheduled for December 13, 2026, for admission to Classes 6 and 9 in Rashtriya Military Schools, which are English medium residential public schools run by the Ministry of Defence.

Application Correction Details and Fees

Candidates are permitted to modify specific fields within their application forms. Editable fields include the candidate’s name, father’s name, mother’s name, Class 5 and Class 8 equivalent details, date of birth, gender, category, signature, thumb impression, domicile certificate, birth certificate, and Aadhaar details. However, certain fields such as the mobile number, email address, permanent and present address, emergency contact details, and the candidate’s photograph are non-editable.

If any corrections lead to a change in the application fee, an additional fee may be required. This payment must be completed online using a Credit Card, Debit Card, Net Banking, or UPI. The NTA has stated that fees, once paid, will not be refunded. The correction facility is a one-time opportunity; once corrections are submitted, the application forms will be frozen, and no further changes will be permitted.

The initial online application period for RMS CET 2026 ran from September 23, 2026, to October 20, 2026. Candidates could also submit forms with a late fee of ₹500 from October 21, 2026, to October 25, 2026, with the final deadline for late fee submissions being 11:50 PM on October 25, 2026.

Examination Format and Upcoming Dates

The RMS CET 2026 examination will be conducted in an Optical Mark Recognition (OMR)-based format. The duration of the examination will be two hours and 30 minutes. For Class VI, the examination medium will be bilingual (English and Hindi), while for Class IX, it will be exclusively in English. There is no negative marking in the Stage-I Written Examination, but candidates must achieve the prescribed minimum qualifying percentage in each subject.

Following the closure of the correction window, the NTA plans to release the City Intimation Slip tentatively on November 29, 2026. Admit Cards for the examination are expected to be issued tentatively on December 08, 2026. Rashtriya Military Schools, established as King George’s Royal Indian Military schools, provide quality education to wards of defence personnel and civilians.
