- Exam City Slip (Pre-Admit Card) — Expected in late January 2026 📅
- CTET Admit Card Release — Expected in early February 2026 📅
- Exam Date — February 8, 2026 📍
📝 What Is the CTET City Intimation Slip?
The city intimation slip is a preliminary document released by CBSE that informs candidates of the examination city where they have been allotted a centre. This is different from the full admit card and does not contain the exact exam centre address.
It helps aspirants plan travel and stay arrangements before the primary admit card is issued.

Candidates will be able to download the city intimation slip once released by following these steps:

🗺️ CTET Exam Centres: What to Expect
CBSE conducts CTET across hundreds of cities nationwide to accommodate large numbers of candidates. The exact centres are typically published as part of the exam scheduling process, and city slips reflect the city, not detailed centre locations.
Candidates cannot request changes to their allotted city once it’s published.
