No Change in BUET Admission 2026-27 Test Date, January 16 Confirmed
The Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) will hold its admission test on January 16, 2027. The university confirmed the date in a notice published on Tuesday (November 10).
The test for the 2026-27 academic session will take place as scheduled. The university has not announced any change to the examination date.
BUET Confirms Admission Test Date
BUET published a brief notice on its official website confirming the schedule. The announcement follows an earlier statement from the university's Admission Test Committee.
On November 7, Professor Dr. Md. Kamrul Hasan confirmed the admission test schedule. He heads the admission committee and teaches Electrical and Electronic Engineering at BUET.

He said the university would hold the examination on the planned date.
HSC Re-Scrutiny Candidates Can Apply
Students awaiting their HSC re-scrutiny results will also be eligible to apply. Re-scrutiny is the process of reviewing published examination results.
Professor Hasan said the university had scheduled the examination relatively late for these students.
However, students taking the HSC supplementary examination are unlikely to qualify for admission. He said their expected marks could affect their eligibility.
Will BUET Hold a Preliminary Admission Test?
BUET did not conduct a preliminary screening test for the 2025-26 academic session. Instead, the university selected eligible candidates through a written examination.
A similar admission process may continue for the 2026-27 session. However, the university has not yet confirmed its final decision.
The Academic Council will review the admission arrangements at an upcoming meeting.
The meeting will also decide important details, including the application start date. BUET is expected to announce the full admission schedule after these decisions are made.
