TISSNET (Tata Institute of Social Sciences National Entrance Test) as a standalone exam has been discontinued since 2025. The last TISSNET was conducted in January 2024. For TISS admissions in 2027, you must qualify through CUET-PG 2027 (conducted by NTA, for most MA and MSW programs) or CAT 2026 (for HRM and ODCL programs), and then register separately on the TISS admissions portal at admissions.tiss.ac.in. The CUET-PG 2027 admit card, issued by NTA, is the hall ticket you will need for TISS 2027 admissions — it has not been released yet.

TISSNET 2027 will not be conducted as a standalone exam. The admit card for TISS 2027 admissions is the CUET-PG 2027 hall ticket issued by NTA — it will be available on the official NTA CUET-PG portal once registration opens in late 2026.

  • TISSNET (standalone) was discontinued after January 2024 — TISS will not conduct a separate entrance test in 2027.
  • The admit card for TISS 2027 admissions is the CUET-PG 2027 hall ticket issued by NTA; it will be available on the NTA CUET-PG portal approximately two weeks before the exam.
  • You can download the CUET-PG 2027 admit card using your Application Number and Date of Birth once it is released.
  • After CUET-PG 2027 results, register separately at admissions.tiss.ac.in to apply to your chosen TISS programme.
  • Shortlisted students must then appear for the TISS Programme Aptitude Test (TISS-PAT) and an Online Personal Interview (OPI).
  • For HRM and ODCL programs, use CAT 2026 scores instead of CUET-PG — check admissions.tiss.ac.in for programme-specific routes.
  • Carry a printed copy of the CUET-PG 2027 admit card along with a valid photo ID to the exam centre — digital copies are not accepted.

What is TISSNET Admit Card 2027?

TISSNET (Tata Institute of Social Sciences National Entrance Test) was the standalone entrance test TISS conducted for admission to its postgraduate programs. TISS discontinued this exam after the 2024 cycle. From 2025 onwards, TISS accepts CUET-PG (Common University Entrance Test – Postgraduate, conducted by NTA) scores for most MA and MSW programs, and CAT scores for HRM and ODCL programs.

For TISS 2027 admissions, the admit card students will use is the CUET-PG 2027 hall ticket issued by NTA — not a TISSNET-specific document. This CUET-PG admit card is a mandatory entry pass to the CUET-PG 2027 exam centre. You cannot appear in CUET-PG without it. After qualifying CUET-PG, you separately register at admissions.tiss.ac.in and may receive a separate call letter for TISS-PAT and OPI if shortlisted.

The CUET-PG 2027 admit card will not be sent by post — you must download it from the NTA CUET-PG portal using your login credentials.

Note: The CUET-PG admit card confirms your slot for the NTA-conducted CUET-PG exam — it does not guarantee admission to TISS. Admission depends on CUET-PG score, TISS-PAT performance, OPI, and programme-specific cutoffs set by TISS.

TISSNET Admit Card 2027 Release Date

The CUET-PG 2027 admit card — which serves as the hall ticket for TISS 2027 admissions — has not been released yet. NTA typically releases the CUET-PG admit card two to three weeks before the exam, which is expected in March 2027. TISS separately issues a TISS-PAT call letter to shortlisted students after CUET-PG results are declared.

TISSNET / CUET-PG Admit Card: Past Year Trends

The table below shows how the TISS admission process and its admit card have changed across recent cycles. TISSNET was the standalone TISS exam until 2024; CUET-PG replaced it from 2025 onwards.

If you notice an error in your CUET-PG 2027 admit card — such as a wrong name, incorrect category, or unclear photograph — act immediately. Two separate authorities are involved: NTA handles CUET-PG admit card errors, while TISS handles issues with its own registration portal and TISS-PAT call letter.

  2. Note the exact error — name spelling, date of birth, category, photograph, or exam centre.
  3. Contact NTA’s CUET-PG helpdesk via the official NTA portal or helpline with your application number and a description of the error.
  4. Attach a scanned supporting document (e.g., Aadhaar for name correction, birth certificate for date of birth).
  5. Do not appear at the CUET-PG exam centre with an admit card containing incorrect details — resolve the issue before the exam date.

For TISS-PAT call letter or TISS portal issues:

  1. Log in to admissions.tiss.ac.in and check your dashboard for the specific issue.
  2. Email TISS Admissions at admissions@tiss.edu with your TISS application number and a description of the problem.

TISSNET 2027 Admit Card FAQs

Ques: Will there be a TISSNET 2027 admit card?

Ans: There will be no standalone TISSNET admit card in 2027. TISSNET as a separate exam was discontinued after the 2024 cycle. The hall ticket you need for TISS 2027 admissions is the CUET-PG 2027 admit card issued by NTA. You download it from the NTA CUET-PG portal once registration opens in late 2026.

Ques: Why was TISSNET discontinued?

Ans: TISS aligned its postgraduate admission process with centralized national exams from 2025. CUET-PG (conducted by NTA) replaced TISSNET for most MA and MSW programmes, while CAT scores are used for HRM and ODCL. This removed the need for TISS to conduct and administer a separate entrance exam.

Ques: How do I get the admit card for TISS 2027 admissions?

Ans: Register for CUET-PG 2027 on the NTA portal when registration opens in December 2026. Download your CUET-PG 2027 admit card from the same NTA portal in March 2027. That admit card is your entry pass to the exam. After CUET-PG results, register at admissions.tiss.ac.in — if shortlisted, you will receive a separate TISS-PAT call letter.

Ques: When will the CUET-PG 2027 admit card be released?

Ans: NTA has not yet announced CUET-PG 2027 dates. Based on the 2026 cycle (exam: March 16–19, 2026), the CUET-PG 2027 admit card is expected in March 2027, approximately two to three weeks before the exam. Check the NTA portal and admissions.tiss.ac.in for official announcements.

Ques: What was the old TISSNET admit card and how was it downloaded?

Ans: The TISSNET admit card was the official hall ticket issued by TISS for the standalone TISSNET exam conducted in January each year. Students downloaded it from the TISS admissions portal using their Application Form Number and Password or Date of Birth. The last TISSNET admit card was issued in January 2024 for TISSNET 2024.

Ques: What TISS programmes accept CUET-PG scores in 2027?

Ans: Most of TISS’s MA postgraduate programmes — including MA in Social Work, MA in Education, MA in Women’s Studies, MA in Media and Cultural Studies, and several others — are expected to accept CUET-PG 2027 scores. The HRM and ODCL programmes use CAT 2026 scores. Check admissions.tiss.ac.in for the updated programme-wise route for 2027.

Ques: Can I use a digital copy of the admit card at the exam centre?

Ans: No. NTA requires a printed hard copy of the CUET-PG 2027 admit card at the exam centre. A digital copy on your phone or tablet is not accepted. Print on A4 paper and carry two to three copies.

Ques: What details are printed on the CUET-PG 2027 admit card for TISS?

Ans: The CUET-PG 2027 admit card carries your name, application number, roll number, category, CUET-PG subject and paper, exam date, shift and timing, reporting time, exam centre name and address, your photograph, your signature, and important exam instructions.

Ques: What if there is an error in my name or category on the CUET-PG admit card?

Ans: Contact NTA’s CUET-PG helpdesk immediately with your application number, a description of the error, and supporting documents. NTA typically allows a correction window after admit card release — act within that window. Do not appear at the exam with an admit card that carries incorrect details.

Ques: Will the CUET-PG admit card be sent by post?

Ans: No. NTA does not send the CUET-PG admit card by post. You must download it yourself from the official NTA CUET-PG portal using your application number and date of birth.

Ques: What ID proof should I carry to the CUET-PG 2027 exam?

Ans: Carry any one original government-issued photo ID — Aadhaar card, PAN card, Passport, Voter ID, or Driving Licence. Students without a government ID can carry a school or college photo identity card. The same ID you use for the CUET-PG exam should ideally be carried to the TISS-PAT and OPI stages as well.

Ques: How many copies of the admit card should I carry?

Ans: Carry at least two to three printed copies of the CUET-PG 2027 admit card. Keep one for the exam day, one for the TISS registration and interview stages, and one as a backup. The TISS-PAT call letter (if issued separately) should also be printed and carried independently.
