BITSAT 2026 Important Dates

BITSAT 2026 Exam Sessions

BITSAT 2026 will be conducted in two sessions. This is similar to JEE Main. Candidates can choose to appear in one session or both.

Here's the good news – if you attempt both sessions, BITS will consider your best score for admission. This gives you a better chance to improve your performance.

New BITS Pilani Admissions Portal

BITS Pilani has updated its official admissions portal. The new website is admissions.bits-pilani.ac.in. This change aims to increase accessibility and transparency for all applicants.

Candidates should use only this updated portal for authentic updates on BITSAT 2026. You can also check the website for various scholarship options based on different criteria.

Scholarships for BITSAT Students

BITS Pilani offers financial support to deserving students. According to the institute, one in every four students on their campuses receives some form of financial assistance.

Prof Ramgopal Rao, Vice Chancellor of BITS Pilani, shared his thoughts on this. He said, "At BITS Pilani, we want every talented student to feel that this institution is within their reach. Many of our alumni have created fully funded scholarships for students from economically weaker families and for girls who aspire to study at BITS Pilani campuses."

He added, "We actively encourage students from lower and middle-income backgrounds to take BITSAT with confidence. If they have the merit, we'll find a way to support their education. That commitment is central to the BITS Pilani ethos."

What Is BITSAT?

BITSAT (Birla Institute of Technology and Science Admission Test) is an online, computer-based entrance exam. BITS Pilani conducts this exam for admission to undergraduate programmes at its campuses in Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad.

The exam is for courses like BE, B.Pharm, and BSc (Integrated).

BITSAT 2026 Marking Scheme

The marking scheme is simple but requires a careful approach:

• You'll get +3 marks for every correct answer.
• You'll lose 1 mark for every wrong answer.
• Unattempted questions carry 0 marks.

Since there's negative marking, you need to be strategic. Don't guess randomly. Only attempt questions you're confident about.
