If you have registered for CUET UG 2026, one document you absolutely cannot ignore right now is the CUET City Intimation Slip 2026. Released by the National Testing Agency (NTA) a few days before the examination begins, this slip tells you the city where your exam will be held — giving you precious time to plan your travel, book accommodation, and prepare mentally for exam day.

In this article, we cover everything you need to know about the CUET UG 2026 City Intimation Slip — what it is, when it will be released, how to download it, and what details it contains.

What Is the CUET City Intimation Slip 2026?

The CUET City Intimation Slip — also called the Advance City Intimation Slip — is an official document issued by the NTA ahead of the CUET UG examination. Its primary purpose is to notify registered candidates about:

• The city where their examination centre has been allotted
• Their subject-wise exam dates
• The shift/time slot for each paper

Think of it as an early heads-up from NTA. It does not include the exact address of the exam centre or your roll number — those details appear on the CUET UG Admit Card 2026, which is released separately.

How Is the Exam City Allotted?

NTA allots exam cities based on the city preferences submitted by candidates during the CUET UG 2026 registration process. Here is how the allotment generally works:

• NTA tries to assign your first or second preferred city, subject to seat availability.
• If preferred cities are full, the nearest available city is assigned.

Changes after the city slip is released are generally not allowed, except in cases of genuine hardship via written representation with valid proof.
