Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification
The required qualification depends on the UPTET paper selected by the candidate:
- For Paper 1, candidates generally need to have passed Class 12 with the prescribed marks and completed or be pursuing an approved elementary teacher-training qualification such as D.El.Ed or B.El.Ed.
- Graduate candidates possessing an approved elementary education qualification may also be eligible under the applicable rules.
- For Paper 2, candidates generally require a bachelor’s degree along with an approved teacher-training qualification such as D.El.Ed, B.Ed or B.El.Ed.
- Qualifications must be obtained from a recognised board, university or teacher education institution.
- Candidates should refer to the UPTET 2026 notification for the precise percentage, course-status and final-year eligibility conditions.
Age Limit
- The applicable minimum and upper age requirements are governed by the detailed UPTET 2026 notification.
- Category-based relaxation may be available to SC, ST, OBC, persons with disabilities and other eligible candidates under Uttar Pradesh government rules.
- Qualifying UPTET does not by itself guarantee appointment or override the age conditions of a future teacher recruitment notification.
Fees
- The examination fee varies by category and by the number of papers selected.
- Separate rates may apply to General, OBC, SC, ST and differently-abled candidates.
- The exact fee structure was required to be checked during the online application process and should be verified from the official notification.
Selection Process
UPTET is a qualifying examination, not a direct appointment process. The stages are:
- Written Examination: Candidates appear for Paper 1, Paper 2 or both, depending on the teaching level chosen.
- Result and Qualifying Marks: UPESSC evaluates the answer sheets and determines eligibility using the prescribed category-wise qualifying criteria.
- Eligibility Certificate and Recruitment: Successful candidates receive eligibility status and may apply separately for teacher recruitment when vacancies are advertised.
The UPTET qualifying cut-off should not be confused with a recruitment merit cut-off. Candidates must check the result notice for the official 2026 category-wise qualifying marks and pass percentage. The overall pass percentage, if published, will be available in the result statistics or related notice on the commission’s portal.
