🔄 Last verified: 28 September 2026 — ✅ CONFIRMED: AISSEE 2027 notification NOT yet released (NTA portal still shows AISSEE 2026 updates, per EdexLive’s 8 Sept check and EntranceZone’s 4 Sept check — two independent sources). Exam date 31 January 2027 is ✅ in NTA’s official Examination Calendar (notice 16 Sept 2026) but explicitly tentative.
The countdown has begun, but the starting gun hasn’t fired. Today marks exactly 125 days to the proposed AISSEE 2027 exam date of 31 January 2027 — and the notification that officially opens the admission cycle still hasn’t been released.
This is not unusual. The AISSEE 2026 notification appeared only about a month before its application window, and in that cycle families got just 20 days between the notification and the form deadline. The quiet period is precisely when the best-prepared families pull ahead. Here is where things stand, and what this week is for.

| Milestone | Status |
|---|---|
| Notification / information bulletin | ❌ Not released (as of 28 Sept 2026) |
| Online application window | ⏳ Expected Oct–Nov 2026 (trend, not official) |
| Exam date | ✅ 31 Jan 2027 — in NTA calendar, tentative |
| Mode | ✅ Pen-and-paper OMR (as in AISSEE 2026) |
| Classes | ✅ Class VI and Class IX |
On the notification (EXPECTED, basis: previous-year trend). Two independent education portals — EdexLive (checked 8 Sept) and EntranceZone (checked 4 Sept) — confirmed the NTA AISSEE portal still carries AISSEE 2026 content. The AISSEE 2026 notification released around 1 November 2025; following that pattern, expect the 2027 bulletin in October–November 2026. This is an expectation, not an NTA announcement — nobody has announced a date.
On the exam date (CONFIRMED tentative). NTA’s Examination Calendar up to March 2027, published 16 September 2026, lists AISSEE 2027 on 31 January 2027. The same notice states all dates are tentative and may change. Treat it as the official plan, not a guarantee. Full calendar: all 5 school-defence entrance dates.
The pattern of recent cycles is a short fuse. AISSEE 2026’s applications ran roughly 10–30 October 2025 — about 20 days — with a correction window in early November. Families who scrambled for documents in October lost prep days in November and December. The families who already had everything scanned and ready treated the form window as a 20-minute administrative task and kept studying.
The other reason this week matters: the OMR format punishes unpractised students. AISSEE 2026 was pen-and-paper OMR with multiple-choice questions — Class VI a 150-minute paper, Class IX a 180-minute paper. If your child has only ever solved in a notebook, the first OMR mock usually exposes time-management problems. Now is the time to discover them.
Has the AISSEE 2027 notification been released? Not yet, as of 28 September 2026. The NTA’s official AISSEE portal still carries AISSEE 2026 updates. The notification with the application window, fee and eligibility is expected in October–November 2026 based on previous-year trends.
What is the AISSEE 2027 exam date? 31 January 2027, listed in NTA’s official Examination Calendar (notice of 16 September 2026). The date is tentative and may change, but it is the official plan as of now.
How many days are left for AISSEE 2027? From 28 September 2026, exactly 125 days remain to the proposed exam date of 31 January 2027. Roughly the first 30–40 of those days are likely to fall before the application window closes.
What should parents do before the AISSEE 2027 notification releases? Keep documents ready (birth certificate, domicile, category certificate, photo and signature in NTA format), finish the syllabus once, and start one full-length OMR mock every week. In AISSEE 2026, applicants got only about 20 days between the notification and the form deadline.
