About Gauhati University Examinations
The Gauhati University examination cycle for 2026 is divided into two primary sessions. The Even Semester (2nd, 4th, and 6th Sem) examinations, including the newly implemented Four-Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUGP), are typically scheduled to commence in May–June 2026. Results and evaluation for this session are generally finalized by July to allow for the subsequent admission cycle.
The Odd Semester (1st, 3rd, and 5th Sem) exams for the 2026-27 session are expected to begin in November–December 2026. The Office of the Controller of Examinations, currently led by Dr. Dhruba Choudhury, is responsible for notifying students of any changes to the schedule via the official Integrated University Management System (IUMS) portal.

Exam Pattern & Session Types
Gauhati University has transitioned to the FYUGP (Four-Year Undergraduate Programme) under NEP 2020, featuring multiple entry and exit options. Examinations include:
- Theory Exams: Usually held in two shifts (9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM).
- Practical/Internal Assessment: Conducted at the respective college level, generally 2 weeks before the commencement of theory papers.
- Arrear/Supplementary Exams: Held alongside regular semester exams to ensure students can clear backlogs within the academic year.
Expert Tips for Students
- Verify Subject Codes: With the introduction of NEP-based courses (AEC, VAC, and SEC papers), ensure the subject codes on your timetable match your registration form exactly.
- Internal Marks Matter: Ensure your internal assessment and practical marks are uploaded by your college before the theory exams begin, as the GU portal closes these links strictly as per the academic calendar.
- Download the GU App: Use the official university mobile notifications or portal alerts to stay updated on "Rescheduled" exams, which can occur due to local holidays or administrative reasons.
