- Log in using the Application Number and Password used at the time of registration.
- View the scorecard on screen, then download and print a copy.

Cut-off marks
The cut-off marks have not been released with this result. Check the official website for updates.
What happens next
NTA will re-conduct the examination for English, Commerce and Sociology on 9 and 10 September 2026. Candidates from these subjects should refer to the public notice dated 16 August 2026 for further details, as referenced in the press release. Once this re-conduct is complete, NTA will add scorecards for these three subjects, and candidates currently seeing the login error will be able to check their result normally.
The press release also states that eligibility criteria, self-declaration and documents of qualified candidates will be verified as per the norms in the UGC-NET June 2026 Information Bulletin, “by the concerned authorities” as part of due process. This is added context, not part of the official notice: this verification is typically carried out later by the university or college where a qualified candidate applies for an Assistant Professor post or PhD admission, not by NTA itself. Confirm with the official website.
This is added context, not part of the official notice. Qualifying for JRF and Assistant Professor makes a candidate eligible for both research fellowship support and future Assistant Professor recruitment. Qualifying for Assistant Professor and PhD admission covers the teaching-eligibility route without the fellowship. Qualifying for PhD only allows admission to a doctoral programme but not direct eligibility for an Assistant Professor post. None of these qualifications is a job offer by itself — candidates still need to apply separately whenever a university or college advertises an Assistant Professor vacancy.

If your name is not in the list
The press release does not mention a re-checking, revaluation or RTI route for this result. The only objection window that existed was for the provisional answer key, from 16 to 18 August 2026, and it has already closed. Candidates from English, Commerce or Sociology whose result is still pending should wait for the re-conducted examination on 9 and 10 September 2026 rather than treat the current login message as a final outcome. Candidates preparing for the next UGC-NET cycle, or tracking other openings meanwhile, can check Post Graduate jobs and teaching jobs on the site, or the Results category for further UGC-NET updates.
