    How to complete BITSAT 2026 slot booking

    You will need your application credentials to access the slot booking portal. Typically, candidates log in with application number and password or date of birth, select an exam city, then pick a date and a shift before confirming — but check the official portal for exact steps and any payment requirements.

    If you have not completed BITSAT registration or not paid the application fee, complete those steps first. The booking system usually blocks unregistered or unpaid accounts from selecting slots.

    Shift 1 and shift 2 timings for BITSAT 2026

    The update names two sessions — shift 1 and shift 2 — which usually mean a morning and an afternoon slot. The official communication available to us does not list precise shift start and end times. Watch the official portal or your registered email for the confirmed schedule and admit card release.

    Important instructions and reminders

    Save proof of your booked slot and screenshot the confirmation page. Admit cards are typically issued after slot booking closes; check the official website for the admit card release date. If you need to change your slot later, look for a published rescheduling or slot change policy on the portal.

    What’s not available yet

    Key missing items: the exact slot booking calendar, shift timings, fee details for booking/rescheduling, number of test centres, and centre-wise city lists. These will be published by the exam authority on the official portal; rely on that for final instructions.
