The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) has released the UP Special TET Admit Card 2026 for the Special Teacher Eligibility Test (Special TET) 2026 under Advertisement No. 03/2026. The admit card was released on 31 October 2026 on the official website upessc.up.gov.in. The examination will be held on 3 November 2026 in offline OMR mode across six divisional headquarters in Uttar Pradesh. Candidates who applied for the examination can now download their hall ticket by logging in with their credentials. Read the notification for eligibility, examination pattern and all other information.
The examination city intimation slip released on 23 October 2026 is not the admit card. Only the admit card downloaded now carries the examination centre address and serves as the entry document for the examination hall. Candidates must carry a printed copy of the admit card to the centre, along with a valid photo identity proof.
