Before you apply

Four things most pages get wrong

01 · The cutoff

Age is counted on 1 July 2025

With the one-time relaxation, men: born 02.07.2000 to 01.07.2007. Women: 02.07.1997 to 01.07.2007.

02 · Women

Women get a higher limit: 28

The advertisement sets 22 for men and 25 for women; the 05.01.2026 Government Order adds 3 years for everyone, so 25 and 28.

03 · Domicile

Category relaxation needs UP domicile

OBC, SC and ST candidates from other states apply under General limits.

04 · The drive

The 2025 drive is closed

Its final result came out on 14 October 2026. Check the next UPPRPB advertisement for fresh limits before relying on these.

Post-wise
