The National Testing Agency (NTA) has activated the UGC NET June 2026 Advance City Intimation Slip on its official website, ugcnet.nta.nic.in. Candidates who applied for the June session can now log in with their application number and date of birth to find out which city their exam centre has been allotted in. The UGC NET June 2026 exam will be conducted in Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode from 22nd June to 30th June 2026 in two shifts every day.

Remember, the city intimation slip is not your admit card. It only reveals your allotted exam city so you can arrange travel and accommodation well in advance. The official UGC NET Admit Card 2026 is expected to be released separately by 15th June 2026, and only the admit card will be accepted for entry on exam day.
UGC NET City Intimation Slip 2026 – Out Now
NTA released the advance city slip on 10th June 2026. Every candidate whose application form was successfully submitted can now check their allotted exam city through the candidate login portal. The slip does not mention the exact address of the exam centre – that detail will appear only on the admit card. Until then, candidates from outstation locations should start planning their journey, especially those allotted cities far from their hometown.
