The Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) is a top engineering university in Bangladesh. Every year, thousands of students apply for its undergraduate programs. The BUET Admit Card is a must-have document for the admission test. Without it, you cannot enter the exam hall. This blogpost explains everything about the BUET Admit Card for the 2025-2026 session. It covers the admission process updates, how to download the admit card, the test schedule, and instructions for candidates.
BUET Admit Card 2025
The BUET Admit Card 2025 is essential for the Main Admission Test. It contains your name, photo, exam date, time, and venue. Only shortlisted candidates can download it after the eligible list is published. For the 2025-2026 session, the process focuses on a single Written Admission Test for pre-selected candidates. The admit card is available on the official BUET admission website, ugadmission.buet.ac.bd. Make sure to download and print it in color on A4 paper. Keep it safe until the admission process ends.
MCQ Admit Card (Preliminary Selection)
For the 2025-2026 academic session, BUET has updated its admission process. Unlike previous years, there will likely be no preliminary MCQ examination. Instead, a “Preliminary Selection” will be conducted based on the candidates’ SSC and HSC (or equivalent) results. A list of eligible candidates (top 10,000-12,000 approx.) will be published on December 17, 2025. Therefore, an MCQ Admit Card is not required this year. Candidates should check their eligibility status on the official website. If you are on the eligible list, you will proceed directly to download the admit card for the Main Written Test. (Note: Always check the official circular for any last-minute changes to this procedure).
Written Admit Card
The Written Admit Card is for the Main Admission Test, which is scheduled for January 10, 2026. Only candidates who are shortlisted in the Eligible List (published on December 17, 2025) can download this admit card. The Written Test covers Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry for engineering candidates. Architecture candidates also take a Freehand Drawing and Visual-Spatial Intelligence test. You can download the Written Admit Card starting from late December 2025 (after the eligible list publication). Like previous years, print it in color on A4 paper. It includes your exam venue and seating details. Double-check for accuracy.
