The UCEED and CEED 2026 entrance examinations are both scheduled for January 18, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Both exams follow a hybrid format, featuring a computer-based objective section (Part A) and an offline, pen-and-paper drawing/sketching component (Part B) answered in a booklet at the center. Admit cards will be released for both exams on January 2, 2026.
