What is TS EAMCET 2026 (TG EAPCET)?
TS EAMCET — the Telangana State Engineering, Agriculture and Medical Common Entrance Test — is one of the most important state-level entrance exams in South India. From 2025 onwards, its official name was changed to TG EAPCET (Telangana Engineering, Agriculture & Pharmacy Common Entrance Test), though students and coaching institutes continue to refer to it as TS EAMCET.

The exam is conducted by Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad (JNTUH) on behalf of the Telangana Council of Higher Education (TGCHE). It serves as the gateway for admission into undergraduate programs in Engineering (BE/BTech), Agriculture, and Pharmacy at colleges across Telangana.
Good to know: TS EAMCET and TG EAPCET refer to the same exam. The name change happened in 2025. All official communication now uses TG EAPCET, but both names are valid in conversations.

- Uploading wrong photo format — photos must be recent, with a white background, and within the specified file size.
- Forgetting to print the application — you must carry a printed copy to the exam hall along with your admit card.
- Applying for the wrong stream — MPC students apply for the E stream; BiPC students for the AM stream. Check before submitting.
- Ignoring the mobile number field — all communications, including admit card alerts, are sent to your registered mobile. Use an active number.
