Eligibility (2025-26)
Last year HSC 2024 and 2025 candidates were eligible. The rule looks at the sum of both exams — a science student with 4.50 at SSC and 3.50 at HSC reaches 8.0, unless the circular also sets a floor for each exam. Individual faculties may add subject-level conditions, so read the relevant faculty’s section of the circular.
| Faculty | Science | Business | Humanities |
|---|---|---|---|
| FASS (Arts & Social Sciences) | 8.00 | 8.00 | 7.50 |
| FBS (Business Studies) | 8.50 | 8.00 | 7.50 |
| FSSS (Security & Strategic Studies) | 8.50 | 8.00 | 8.00 |
| FST, FOE, FMS | 9.00 | — | — |
Which faculty sits when — planning around the dates
Business Studies runs over two days (1 and 9 January); the circular will say which programme or group sits on which day. Arts and Social Science have a single day, 2 January.
Science, Engineering and Medical Studies sit on 8 January, eight days before BUET on the 16th, and MIST comes earlier still on 18–19 December. Anyone targeting all three should keep momentum with a weekly mock test from mid-December onward.
The fee, and what from last year is not printed
In 2025-26 the application fee was Tk 1,100, applications ran from 10 to 30 November and the eligible list followed on 7 December.
Two conflicting versions of last cycle’s test schedule were published in the press, so neither appears here. This year’s dates come from the announcement of 2 September 2026; no reliable seat figure was found either, so take that from the circular.
