Candidates should note that no request for change of centre will normally be granted.

Such requests will be considered on merits but requests received after the 24th June, 2004 will not be entertained under any circumstances.

More than one application from a candidate giving different centres will not be accepted in any case. Even if a candidate sends more than one completed application, the Commission will accept only one application at their discretion and the Commission's decision in the matter shall be final.
  • If any candidate appears at a Centre other than the one indicated by the Commission in his Admission Certificate, the papers of such a candidate will not be valued and his candidature will be liable to cancellation
