At the Centre for Defence Careers, we understand the importance of the NDA and CDS exams for aspiring defence personnel. One of the crucial steps in your preparation is obtaining your admit card, which grants you entry to the examination hall. Here’s a detailed guide on how you can download your NDA/CDS admit card easily and efficiently.
Step 1: Visit the Official UPSC Website
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is responsible for conducting the NDA and CDS exams. To download your admit card, you need to visit the official UPSC website.
- Website URL: www.upsc.gov.in
Once you’re on the homepage, look for the “Admit Cards” tab, which is usually located in the ‘What’s New’ section or under the ‘Examinations’ menu.
Step 2: Navigate to the Admit Card Link
Click on the “Admit Cards” tab or the relevant link provided for the NDA/CDS exam. This will take you to a new page where you’ll find a link specifically for downloading the admit card.
- Example Link Text: “e-Admit Card for NDA (I)/(II)” or “e-Admit Card for CDS (I)/(II)”.
Step 3: Choose the Download Method
UPSC typically provides two options for downloading your admit card:
- By Registration ID: You’ll need the registration ID provided during the application process.
- By Roll Number: You’ll need your roll number, which is assigned to you after your application is accepted.
Step 4: Enter Your Details
After selecting your preferred method, you will be prompted to enter your details:
- Registration ID/Roll Number
- Date of Birth
- Captcha Code: Enter the captcha code exactly as it appears on the screen.
Once you’ve filled in the details, click on the “Submit” button.
Step 5: Download and Print Your Admit Card
After successfully submitting your details, your admit card will appear on the screen. Review all the information carefully to ensure there are no errors.
- Important Details to Check:
- Your Name
- Exam Centre
- Exam Date and Time
- Roll Number
- Important Instructions
If everything is correct, download the admit card in PDF format and print multiple copies. It’s advisable to keep both a digital copy and several hard copies for safety.
Step 6: Contact UPSC for Any Discrepancies
If you find any discrepancies in your admit card, such as incorrect personal details or wrong exam center information, contact UPSC immediately. Their contact details will be provided on the admit card download page or in the official notification.
Step 7: Keep Your Admit Card Safe
Your admit card is a crucial document that you must bring with you to the examination center. Without it, you won’t be allowed to sit for the exam. Additionally, keep a copy of your admit card safe even after the exam, as it may be required for future reference.
