MP SET 2025 Exam Postponed

The Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission (MPPSC) has officially deferred the State Eligibility Test (SET) 2025, originally scheduled for January 2026. The sudden postponement has impacted the preparation plans of thousands of candidates aspiring for assistant professor positions across the state's universities and colleges.

In a brief notification published on its official portal, the Commission cited "unavoidable administrative and technical reasons" for rescheduling the examination. The notice confirmed that the test, which was to be conducted on January 11, 2026, across numerous centers for 31 subjects, now stands postponed until further notice.

Key Details from the Official Announcement:
  • The MP SET 2025 exam will not be held on its previously announced date of January 11, 2026.
  • The Commission has stated that a revised examination schedule will be published "soon."
  • Candidates are advised to monitor only the MPPSC's official website, mppsc.mp.gov.in, for authentic updates regarding new exam dates and admit card releases.

The announcement has generated significant concern among candidates who have been preparing intensively for the competitive examination. Academic counselors, however, suggest utilizing the extended timeline strategically.

Official Advisory:

The MPPSC has urged candidates to disregard unverified information circulating on social media platforms and to rely exclusively on its official communications. The Commission has assured that a fresh notification with the new date will be issued in due course.

The MP SET is a mandatory qualification for securing lectureships in Madhya Pradesh's state-funded higher educational institutions. All stakeholders now await the Commission's forthcoming announcement for clarity on the revised examination timeline.

For direct access to the official notice, candidates can visit the MPPSC website.
