TS POLYCET 2027 Eligibility Criteria define who can apply for diploma (polytechnic) courses in Telangana. The State Board of Technical Education and Training (SBTET), Telangana, conducts TS POLYCET for admission to 3-year diploma programs in engineering, technology, pharmacy, and non-engineering streams. Five conditions decide eligibility: passing Class 10 (SSC) from a recognized board, the subjects studied in Class 10, nationality and Telangana domicile, the category claimed at the time of application, and whether the student already holds a recognized diploma. Unlike many central entrance exams, TS POLYCET has no upper age limit for any category. Students appearing in SSC 2027 can also apply before their result is declared.

Admission Update:
  • TS POLYCET 2027: The official notification from SBTET Telangana is expected in March 2027 (Tentative), based on the TS POLYCET 2026 cycle.
