Which Details Can Be Corrected?

- The permitted list also includes date of birth, gender, category, subject and sub-category/PwBD where it has not been verified through the UDID portal.
- Examination-city preferences can be changed based on the permanent and present addresses. A preferred city is not guaranteed.
Details That Cannot Be Changed
- Mobile number and email address.
- Permanent and present addresses.

How to Review and Submit Your Correction
- Open the official UGC NET website using the link above and enter the candidate application area.
- Read the correction notice before selecting fields to edit.
- Compare the existing form with your supporting records. Correct only permitted particulars.
- Review all changes together before the final submission; the application will be frozen afterward.
- Pay any additional applicable fee and retain the updated confirmation and transaction records.
Additional Fee and Final Submission
If a change increases the applicable fee, the additional amount must be paid online. A correction requiring extra payment takes effect only after successful payment. Fees already paid are not refundable under this notice. Do not leave a fee-dependent correction incomplete.
This is a correction facility for registered candidates, not a fresh registration window. NTA states that no further correction opportunity will be provided after the closing time. Read Annexure-I in the PDF if you are unsure whether a particular field is editable.
Before You Finish
- Recheck spelling, subject and category against your records.
- Keep a copy of the final submitted form for future comparison.
