As of 27 October 2026, BITS Pilani has not announced the BITSAT 2027 examination calendar. The official admissions site is still showing the completed 2026-27 First Degree admission cycle. Do not use the 2026 dates below as a forecast for 2027: they are a dated reference for planning the sequence of an application, test sessions and admission steps.
What is confirmed for the next cycle
No BITSAT 2027 registration opening, application deadline, correction window, admit-card release, examination date, result date or counselling schedule was present on the official pages checked for this page. The First Degree admissions page said the 2026-27 cycle was closed in a notice posted on 27 August 2026. Its dated notices are useful for understanding the last cycle, but they do not establish a 2027 schedule.
Applicants should use the BITS Pilani admissions website as the controlling source. Check its First Degree admissions and BITSAT notices for a new cycle-specific brochure and schedule. Dates copied from a prior brochure, an old search result or a third-party estimate should not be treated as a confirmed deadline. When a new calendar appears, check whether the notice gives separate dates for Session 1, Session 2 and the admission preference form; these are distinct steps.
The 2026 calendar, retained as history
The official 2026 brochure and admissions pages described a two-session computer-based test. The 2026 schedule listed Session 1 on 15-16 April 2026 and Session 2 on 24-26 May 2026. Candidates who applied for Session 1 could later opt into Session 2 during the separate 20 April-5 May registration window. The application page listed 19 March 2026, 5 pm as the Session 1 application deadline, followed by an edit window on 21-22 March.
The exam was only one part of the application sequence. The 2026 site later required candidates to submit Class 12 marks and programme preferences through a First Degree preference form. The posted deadline for that step was 1 June 2026 at 11:55 pm. The campus preference form, result and offer iterations followed the test; sitting BITSAT alone did not complete every step required for an admission offer. The 2026 cycle is now closed, so these dates must not be reused as current instructions.
These dates come from the official BITSAT 2026 information page, the First Degree admission notices and the 2026 brochure. The admission site described the dates as tentative and said changes would be notified on the official website. That caveat is another reason to check dated notices rather than rely on a calendar copied elsewhere.
How to prepare a calendar without guessing
When BITSAT 2027 dates are published, make a single checklist from the new official schedule. Record the application opening and closing times, payment completion, any correction period, each test session's registration and exam dates, admit-card availability, and the deadline for the separate admission preference form. Keep result and offer-acceptance dates on the same calendar, but mark them as pending until the institute announces them.
If the next cycle again has more than one test session, read the brochure to establish which applicants may choose a second session, whether they need to pay an additional fee and how scores from multiple attempts are treated. The 2026 arrangement is evidence only for 2026. It does not prove that 2027 will retain the same number of sessions, test window or attempt policy.
Use the date and time printed on the active notice. A portal deadline can be earlier than midnight, and payment completion may be required before the form is considered submitted. Save the submitted application acknowledgement and fee receipt. For the test, use the date, slot, centre and reporting instructions on the candidate's own hall ticket; a general calendar cannot substitute for those details.
Results and admission milestones
BITSAT results and the First Degree admission process are separate from the examination calendar. The 2026 site published iteration results and offer-acceptance deadlines after the test, and it described programme preference submission as a distinct task. Candidates therefore needed to monitor the official account after the exam rather than assume that an exam score automatically produced a seat or completed admission.
No BITSAT 2027 result date or counselling / offer schedule was announced on the official pages checked by 27 October 2026. BITS calls the later First Degree process through offer iterations and programme preferences; students should follow the terminology and steps in the new brochure. Do not infer the 2027 round dates from the 2026 sequence or from another entrance examination's counselling calendar.
Frequently asked questions

Does the exam complete the BITS admission process? The 2026 process included a separate step to submit Class 12 marks and programme preferences after the tests. Follow the 2027 brochure for the current sequence and deadlines.
Where should I verify a revised date? Use the official BITS Pilani admissions site and the current First Degree/BITSAT notices. The 2026 site described its dates as tentative and directed candidates to the website for changes.
