Candidates have to option to select two cities for allotment of XAT exam centre. The exam is held in 79 cities across India and you can choose any two cities as per your choice. While selecting the test cities for exam centre allotment, candidates must note the following:

• Select your home city or the city of your current residence as your first city of preference.
• Select the second city of preference as the one to which you can easily make arrangement of travel and stay in case you are allotted a centre there.
• The exam authorities strive to allot the exam centre in the city of first preference.
• At the same time, they have the right to cancel an exam centre in case there is not enough number of students or due to any other unforeseen situation.

To edit information entered in the XAT application form, candidates need to choose the 'EDIT' option and click on save option to make changes. Candidates can choose 'EDIT' option only before submitting the XAT form not after that. Candidates must a take fresh print out of the duly filled XAT application form after modifying any details. There is no provision of form correction in XAT, unlike other MBA entrance exams where candidates are given a window of 2-3 days to edit their form, XAT has no such provision. So, candidates need to ensure that they fill the right entries and if required make the changes before fee payment or form submission. Once the form is submitted they cannot edit it. They will have to fill another form and pay the exam fee again.

However, incase it is extremely necessary, then candidates can raise a query at 'Any Query? Ask Us' option on their XAT dashboard.

On successful registration after clicking the 'Submit' button, an acknowledgement page will be generated with the “XAT Id”. This will be the confirmation that XAT registration has been done successfully submitted. Candidates must note down the XAT ID to use it to re-print the application form or future reference. 

Candidates can then login to fill the form and pay the fees. Once the XAT application form is submitted successfully, candidates will receive a notification in email and SMS. The dashboard will also show the duly filled application form which can be downloaded.

In case of doubt, candidates are advised to visit the page for re-print of application and generate the printout of the duly submitted form. Candidates must save a soft copy and a hard copy of their XAT application form for future use.
