Last verified: 26 October 2026. The correction-window dates (27–28 October 2026), the late-window close (25 October 2026) and the exam date (13 December 2026) are CONFIRMED from the NTA information-bulletin schedule as reported by JagranJosh, EdexLive, Zollege and CareerBox. The exact list of editable fields is EXPECTED to follow the NTA bulletin’s correction rules — check the portal itself when the window opens rather than assuming any field can be changed.

If your child applied for the Rashtriya Military Schools Common Entrance Test (RMS CET) 2026, tomorrow is the day to open the form again. The National Testing Agency (NTA) opens the application correction window on 27 October 2026, and it closes on 28 October 2026. That is the whole window: two days, and then the form is final.
This matters because the late-fee application window closed yesterday, 25 October, at 5 PM for the form and 11:50 PM for the fee. Every RMS CET applicant — regular-window and late-window alike — now shares the same next step: verify the submitted details before the correction facility closes.
Open your confirmation page and compare it, line by line, against your child’s birth certificate and school records. Work through this checklist in order:
One honest caution: the published schedule confirms the window’s dates, but the exact list of fields NTA allows you to edit is set by the bulletin’s correction rules. Do not assume a field is editable — log in on 27 October, see what the portal lets you change, and fix everything it permits in the same sitting. Do not leave it to the 28th if you can help it; a failed payment gateway or a forgotten password on the last evening is exactly how a two-day window gets missed.
Once the correction window shuts on 28 October, the published roadmap runs like this:
| Milestone | Date | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Correction window | 27–28 October 2026 | Opens tomorrow |
| City intimation slip | Last week of November 2026 | EXPECTED |
| Admit card | 5–7 days before the exam | EXPECTED |
| Written examination (OMR) | Sunday, 13 December 2026 | CONFIRMED |
| Stage-I result | January 2027 | EXPECTED |
The written paper is 48 days away from today. That is the real reason this two-day window deserves attention now: a wrong date of birth or a wrong category discovered in December cannot be fixed, and it can complicate everything from the admit card to the medical and interview stages that follow the written test.
Parents with a second form in play should note that the Uttar Pradesh Sainik Schools’ late-fee window opens today, 26 October, and runs to 31 October at 5 PM with a total fee of Rs 2,000 — confirmed by the official UP prospectus and reported by EdexLive, JagranJosh and The Times of India. The UP correction window follows on 3–5 November, and its exam is tentatively set for 20 December. If your family is tracking both exams, this week has two separate correction jobs: RMS CET tomorrow, UP Sainik in early November. Do not mix the two portals up.
Today’s job is preparation, not waiting. Dig out the confirmation page, the birth certificate and the fee receipt, and keep your login credentials ready. Tomorrow morning, log in to exams.nta.nic.in/rmscet, run the checklist above, save the corrected confirmation page, and keep it with the fee receipt until the exam is over. Two days is short — but it is enough, if you start with the documents in hand.
