UPSSSC Exam Calendar 2026 Released: Check Exam Schedule Now

ANALYSIS What This Calendar Means for Aspirants

The UPSSSC calendar for 2026 is one of the busiest in recent years, signalling the commission’s intention to clear a backlog of recruitments across multiple departments. Of the 32 listed events, twelve have already been conducted between January and May 2026, offering some relief to candidates who have been awaiting results. The remaining twenty events — scheduled between June and September — include both freshly notified examinations and concluding stages (medical tests, interviews) of earlier recruitment cycles.

Several examinations hold particular significance. The Combined Junior Subordinate Service (Graduate Level) Main Exam on 23 August 2026 is among the most keenly awaited, as it covers a large number of vacancies across departments. The Excise Constable (Abkari Sipahi) Main Exam on 20 September and the Forest Guard & Wildlife Guard Main Exam on 27 September round off what promises to be an intensive recruitment season.

For those appearing in June examinations, dates such as 29 and 30 June carry double significance: two separate exams are scheduled on the same date, at different shifts — morning (10:00 AM–12:00 PM) and afternoon (3:00 PM–5:00 PM). Candidates must carefully check their individual admit cards and avoid any confusion over shift timings.

TIPS How to Stay Prepared

Bookmark the official portal: All admit cards, hall tickets, and schedule updates are published on the official UPSSSC website. Candidates should check it regularly as the commission may revise dates in special circumstances, as stated in the official notice.

Plan your months: With examinations concentrated in June, July, August, and September, candidates appearing in multiple exams should space out their preparation cycles carefully and ensure documents (ID proof, admit cards, photographs) are ready well in advance.

Physical and medical tests: For posts like Forest Guard and Traffic Constable, physical and medical stages are distinct from written exams. Candidates should maintain physical fitness alongside their studies for these roles.
