When does UPPSC release admit cards?
UPPSC releases admit cards in two steps, both on uppsc.up.nic.in. Its notice No. 07/09/E-2/2026-27 dated 23 October 2026, for a screening exam held on 2–6 November 2026, shows the current timeline:

|---|---|---|
| District information slip | Only the district of the exam centre (advance information, not an admit card) | 10 days before the exam |
| E-admit card | Roll number, exam date, time and exact centre | 3 days before the exam |
If UPPSC follows the same pattern for RO ARO 2026, the admit card link will appear only a few days before the Prelims. Candidates should keep their OTR number and the registered mobile number ready, because all updates are also sent by SMS and email to the details linked with the OTR.

Exam day rules for UPPSC RO ARO Prelims

- Carry the printed e-admit card, two photographs and an original photo ID with a photocopy; the photocopy is given to the invigilator.
- Reach early: in UPPSC’s recent exams, entry started 1 hour 30 minutes before the exam and closed 45 minutes before it began.
- Use only a black ballpoint pen on the OMR sheet. Whitener, blade, pin or rubber on the OMR sheet is not allowed.
- The OMR sheet has three copies: pink (original) and green (preserved) stay with the invigilator; the candidate keeps the blue copy.
- Each wrong answer costs one-third (0.33) of the marks for that question; a blank answer has no penalty. Marking two options counts as wrong.
- Cheating, impersonation or leaking papers is an offence under the Uttar Pradesh Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024, with penalties of up to ₹1 crore fine and life imprisonment.
