UPSC CMSE 2026
The Online Application Portal of the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) for registration and filling up of application forms online, from 11 March 2026 to 31 March 2026, consists of four cards/modules. Out of these, three modules—Account Creation, Universal Registration, and Common Application Form—are common to all examinations and may be filled anytime by the candidate.
The fourth card/module, namely the Examination-Specific Module, can be filled only during the time period allowed in the notification of an examination. Applicants are required to apply online by using the website: https://upsconline.nic.in.
Once a candidate has registered on the Online Application Portal, a Universal
Registration Number (URN) is generated which is common for all the examinations
of the Commission.
After filling up of the Examination Specific Form, Application
Number is generated which is examination specific and is to be retained by the
applicant along with the URN for any future communication with the Commission.
The URN has to be registered only once in lifetime. While the URN will be unique
and remain constant, the Application Number will be dynamic in nature and will
vary from examination to examination.
