CPGET Application Form 2026: Registration Date, Fees & How to Apply Online

There are four steps you must do for the CPGET application process—that is what you should remember:

First, you have the Registration part. Then comes the Fee payment step. After that, you must do the Uploading of documents. Finally, you finish by Filling out application form.

1. Registration

To apply for CPGET 2026, students have to log in to the CPGET website; you can visit this link right here: https://www.ouadmissions.com/doa/. After you log in, students must click on the ‘apply online’ tab. You need to fill the registration form with all correct information and do not leave any field that is marked as mandatory empty. A candidate can apply for up to four subjects using just one form, but you will have to pay a fee for every extra subject you add.

2. Payment of Registration Fee

After successful registration, a registration ID will be made and sent to you, the student. You can use that login ID to pay the fee, upload the right documents, and fill out your application form. Students can pay the registration fee at any TS or AP online centres or they can make payments online using their credit cards, debit cards, or through net banking. The category-wise CPGET application fee is written below for you to check.

Students must check all the information before hitting the save/ submit key. Students are advised not to miss uploading the relevant documents in their specific fields. Incomplete forms will be rejected. A copy of the duly filled form must be saved for future reference.
