If you reach the examination hall once the exam starts, the standard practice is that aspirants will not be allowed to enter the exam hall. The conducting body has strict rules and guidelines to ensure the fairness of the examination process. Students are advised to be in the exam centre well in advance to complete the necessary process. Latecomers are not allowed to enter the exam hall. Candidates must check and read the instructions to avoid any last-minute hassle. Arriving early always gives buffer time to avoid any unprecedented situations.

As per the official website of UGC, candidates after submitting the application forms cannot change any particular such as exam centre. Therefore, it is important for students to carefully choose their preferred exam centre while filling out the application form. The exam centres are allocated to candidates by the National Testing Agency (NTA) but in case there is anything, students can contact the NTA helpdesk for assistance. There is no guarantee that the NTA can make the changes, this is subject to the discretion of the NTA.
