BUET Admission Result 2026
The BUET Admission Result 2026 is the official outcome of the BUET Undergraduate Admission Test for the 2025–26 academic session. This year, BUET has moved to a Direct Written Exam system, meaning there was no preliminary MCQ test; instead, eligible candidates were shortlisted based on their SSC and HSC results and then appeared directly for the final written examination.
BUET divides applicants into two main groups: Group KA for Engineering and Urban & Regional Planning (URP) candidates, and Group KHA for Architecture candidates. Group KA’s written exam covers Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, while Group KHA includes the same core subjects plus a Freehand Drawing / Visual Spatial Intelligence module.
The BUET Admission Result 2026 will be published as separate merit lists for these two groups, showing roll numbers and names based on merit position and department‑wise seat availability. BUET Admission Result 2025–26 is scheduled to be published by January 29, 2026. On that day, the university plans to release both the merit list and the waiting list on the official admission portal.
How to Check BUET Result
Once BUET releases the result, you can check it from any smartphone, tablet, or PC. The result checking system is PDF‑based, not an instant “Roll‑wise search” like some board results. Later, you can also use the search‑by‑roll feature on the BUET portal if that option is enabled.
Here’s how to check step by step:
If your roll appears in the selected list, you are in the merit list. If it appears only in the waiting list, you may get a seat if vacancies arise later.
Download Merit & Waiting List
The Merit List contains the names and roll numbers of students who have secured a seat in BUET for the 2025–26 session. The Waiting List includes candidates who did not get a seat in the first round but may be called if any admitted student drops out or fails document verification.
BUET Admission Subject Choice 2026
Only candidates who appear in the BUET Admission Merit List can fill up the subject choice (preference) form. This form lets you rank the departments you want, and BUET allocates seats based on your merit position and department‑wise seat availability.
Here’s how to fill the subject choice form step by step:
- Wait for the merit list to be published on February 7, 2026.
- Log in to the BUET admission portal using your application credentials.
- Open the “Subject Choice / Preference Form” section (usually under “Admission” or “Result”).
- Select and rank departments in order of your preference (1st choice, 2nd choice, etc.).
- Double‑check that you have not missed any preferred department and that the order matches your priority.
- Submit and confirm the form before the deadline mentioned in the notice.
After you get a subject:
Follow BUET’s instructions for the next steps: document verification, medical checkup, and fee deposit.
Print the confirmation page and keep it with your documents.
Final Admission Process
Final admission at BUET is not automatic just because your name is on the merit list. You must complete document verification, medical checkup, and formal registration within the given deadline; otherwise your seat can be cancelled.
Final Admission Process:
