What is MET Admit Card 2027?
The MET Admit Card 2027 is the official hall ticket issued by Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) for the Manipal Entrance Test. MAHE releases it at apply.manipal.edu a few days before each exam phase. You must carry a printed copy to your exam centre — invigilators verify it at the entry gate before allowing you into the exam hall.
The admit card serves as proof of your registration for MET 2027 and contains your exam centre address, reporting time, shift details, and exam-day instructions. Without it, entry to the exam hall is denied regardless of whether you have completed registration and payment.
You cannot appear in the exam without a valid printed admit card — no digital copy on a phone or tablet is accepted at the exam centre.
The admit card will not be sent by post or email — you must download it yourself from apply.manipal.edu after completing slot booking.
Note: MET 2027 uses a slot booking system. Your admit card download link activates only after you complete slot booking. Register and book your slot early to avoid missing the window.
MET Admit Card 2027 Release Date
MAHE releases the MET admit card approximately two to three days before each exam phase. The Phase 1 admit card is expected in the second week of April 2027 and the Phase 2 admit card in the third week of May 2027. Official dates will be confirmed at manipal.edu once the schedule is announced.

What to Do If There Is a Discrepancy in MET Admit Card 2027
Download your MET 2027 admit card as soon as it is released and verify every detail immediately. Errors such as a misspelled name, wrong date of birth, incorrect exam centre, or a blurred photograph must be reported to MAHE right away. Waiting until exam day may result in denial of entry with no on-the-spot remedy.
- Log in to apply.manipal.edu and cross-check the admit card details against your original application form.
- If the error exists on the admit card but not in the application form, it is a system-level issue — contact MAHE admissions immediately.
- If the error is in the application form itself (such as a name misspelled at registration), submit a correction request along with supporting documents such as your Class 10 certificate or Aadhaar card.
- Email MAHE at admissions@manipal.edu with your application number, a clear description of the error, and a scanned copy of the supporting document.
- Keep a copy of your email or support ticket as proof. Carry this correspondence to the exam centre if the error is not resolved before exam day.
- Arrive early on exam day if a discrepancy is still pending — presenting your ID and email proof at the centre gate gives invigilators context to escalate.
Do not wait until exam day to report a discrepancy — MAHE needs time to verify and correct records. Report immediately after downloading.
