Maharashtra Common Entrance Test • Conducted by State Common Entrance Test Cell, Government of Maharashtra
Session-Specific Release Timeline, Mandatory Contents, and Discrepancy Resolution
The MHT CET admit card is released online separately for each session (April and May), typically about one to two weeks before each session's exam window begins. Since MHT CET is conducted as a CBT across multiple days and shifts within each session, each candidate's admit card specifies their individually allotted date, shift, and test center.
