Last verified: 12 November 2026. The correction-window closure (11:50 PM, 28 October 2026) and the one-time-only rule are CONFIRMED from NTA’s public notice dated 27 October 2026, as reported by EdexLive and FreeJobAlert. The post-closure timeline — city slip in late November, admit card five to seven days before the exam, written test on 13 December 2026 — is CONFIRMED from the NTA information-bulletin schedule, as reported by EdexLive and Enunciate Academy.

If your child applied for the Rashtriya Military Schools Common Entrance Test (RMS CET) 2026, the correction window that opened on 27 October closed last night, 28 October 2026, at 11:50 PM. That was a one-time facility: once a revised form was submitted, the particulars froze, and NTA has said it will not entertain further correction requests.
Here’s the thing — for most families, that is actually good news. The form-filling anxiety that has dominated October is done. No more portals, no more payment screens, no more wondering whether one more edit is possible. What remains is a single, clean job: 31 days of preparation for a written exam on Sunday, 13 December 2026. If you spent last night double-checking the form, you did the right thing. If you missed the window, read the “spotted an error too late” section below before panicking — there is a sensible way to handle it.
Work backwards from 13 December, because every milestone between now and then is already fixed in the NTA schedule:
| Milestone | When | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Correction window | Closed 28 October, 11:50 PM | Nothing more to edit — form is frozen |
| Exam city intimation slip | Last week of November 2026 (tentatively 29 November) | Download it, check the city, plan travel early |
| Admit card | 5–7 days before the exam (tentatively 8 December) | Download from the NTA portal, print two copies |
| Written exam (OMR, 2 hours 30 minutes) | Sunday, 13 December 2026 | Reach the centre early with admit card and ID |
| Stage-I result and final answer keys | January 2027 | Check the NTA portal, not rumour pages |
| Medical exams and interviews | February–March 2027 | Only for candidates who clear Stage I |
| Final result and joining | March–April 2027; joining 1 April 2027 | Follow the school’s joining instructions |
Two dates deserve a calendar entry today, not later: the city slip in late November and the admit card around 8 December. Parents who scramble for both in exam week are the ones who discover a printer problem at the worst possible moment.
1. Save the final confirmation page — properly. Download the updated confirmation page from the portal and save it in two places: your phone and a second device or email. It is the record of what the frozen form actually says, and it is what you will compare against at document verification. If you corrected the form, the updated version is the one that counts, not the original.
2. Guard the login credentials. The application number and password are needed again for the city slip and the admit card. Write them down somewhere a second family member can find them. Every year, a few families lose exam week to a forgotten password reset.
3. Switch the timetable to exam mode. The written paper is 2 hours 30 minutes of OMR questions for Class 6 and Class 9 entry to the five Rashtriya Military Schools — Chail, Ajmer, Dholpur, Belagavi and Bengaluru. Thirty-one days is enough for one full mock paper a week under timed conditions, with the days between spent fixing whatever the mock exposed. That beats a month of unfocused chapter-reading.
If you discovered a mistake after the window closed, do not try to “fix” it by creating a second application — duplicate applications create bigger problems than the original error. Note exactly what is wrong, keep the final confirmation page, and gather the correct supporting document now, so that if the school or NTA raises the mismatch at verification, you can show the truth immediately. Small mismatches are usually resolved at verification with documents; what hurts families is discovering them unprepared on the day.
While RMS paperwork is finished, the UP Sainik School late-fee window closed on 31 October at 5 PM, the correction window ran 3–5 November and has also closed, and the entrance exam is tentatively on 20 December. If your family is also applying there, the exam date is now the one to track.
And for AISSEE 2027 itself: the notification has now arrived — NTA opened applications on 3 November 2026, with the exam on 31 January 2027. Our notification guide has the full schedule. The RMS form itself is frozen: the correction deadline has passed and the locked fields can no longer be changed.
Can I still correct my RMS CET 2026 form after 28 October?
No. The correction window closed at 11:50 PM on 28 October 2026 and NTA described it as a one-time facility. No further correction opportunity is listed in the NTA schedule after that date.
When will the RMS CET city intimation slip come?
The exam city intimation slip is expected in the last week of November 2026, tentatively around 29 November, on the NTA RMS CET portal.
When is the RMS CET 2026 admit card released?
Admit cards are issued five to seven days before the examination, tentatively around 8 December 2026, for the written test on 13 December 2026.
What should I do if I spot an error in my form now?
You cannot edit the frozen form online. Keep the final confirmation page safe, note exactly what is wrong, and be ready to raise it with the documents the school asks for at verification — do not wait until exam week to think about it.
