Exams Scheduled in September 2026
September will see four major examination slots under the programme.
On September 20, the Livestock Extension Officer examination is scheduled from 11 AM to 1 PM, followed by the Surveyor examination from 3 PM to 5 PM.
On September 27, UKSSSC plans to conduct the Assistant Boring Technician examination in the morning and the Computer Programmer examination in the afternoon.
Candidates appearing for these examinations should watch for separate admit card and examination-centre notices from the Commission.
October 2026 Will Have Multiple UKSSSC Exams
October is the busiest part of the current schedule. Exams are scheduled for October 4, October 11, October 18, and October 25.
The Commission will conduct examinations for posts ranging from Junior Cameraman and Research Officer to Artist, Law Assistant, Assistant Sports Officer, Lineman and Instructor.
Separate examinations for Assistant Accountant, agriculture qualification posts and court-related Junior Assistant/Stenographer/Personal Assistant posts are also included in the October calendar.
New Recruitment Notifications Also Planned
The calendar is significant not only for candidates whose applications have already been submitted but also for aspirants waiting for new UKSSSC vacancies.
Proposed notification dates indicate that recruitment advertisements may be issued between August 31 and November 16, 2026, for Intermediate-level, graduate-level, technical, teaching, personal assistant and cooperative department posts.
The actual vacancy numbers and detailed eligibility conditions will be known only when the respective recruitment advertisements are issued.
Dates Are Provisional, UKSSSC Clarifies
Candidates should treat this calendar as an advanced planning schedule rather than an irreversible final timetable.
UKSSSC has clearly stated that the dates listed for proposed advertisements and examinations are provisional. The number of vacancies can increase or decrease, while advertisement or examination dates may also be modified due to unavoidable circumstances.
Therefore, candidates should rely on the individual recruitment notification and subsequent exam notice for final eligibility conditions, vacancies, admit card dates and examination instructions.
