UP Board Compartment and Improvement Exam 2026: Application Window Opens June 6
The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has officially announced the application schedule for the High School Improvement and Compartment examinations, along with the Intermediate Compartment examination for 2026. Eligible candidates can submit their applications online starting June 6, 2026, with the portal remaining open until midnight on June 27, 2026. This presents a crucial opportunity for students seeking to enhance their scores or clear pending subjects.
All applications must be submitted through the board’s official online portal. Students who need to improve their marks in a particular subject or those who fall under the compartment category should take note of this important timeline.
Who Can Apply for the High School Improvement Examination?
The High School (Class 10) Improvement examination is specifically designed for students who wish to enhance their marks in a single subject. This option allows candidates to retake the exam for one subject with the goal of achieving a better score than their previous attempt.
Eligibility for the High School Compartment Examination
Students who have failed in a maximum of two subjects are eligible to apply for the compartment examination. However, it is important to note that such candidates can appear for only one of the failed subjects. This provision gives students a second chance to clear their pending subject without repeating the entire academic year.
Intermediate Compartment Examination: Eligibility Criteria
For the Intermediate (Class 12) Compartment examination, students from the Humanities, Science, and Commerce streams who have failed in one subject are eligible to submit applications.
Additionally, students from the Agriculture stream can apply if they have failed in one question paper from the prescribed subjects in either Agriculture Part 1 or Part 2. Vocational stream students are also eligible to appear for the compartment examination if they have not passed in one trade subject paper.
Application Fees for UP Board Compartment and Improvement Exams
The examination fee structure varies depending on the class for which the student is applying. Candidates must ensure they pay the correct fee corresponding to their examination category.
- High School: 256.50 rupees
- Intermediate: 306 rupees
Important Dates and Submission Requirements
The online application window will remain active from June 6, 2026, through June 27, 2026. Students are required to deposit the applicable fee using a treasury challan. After completing the online application process, candidates must download both the application form copy and the original fee challan. These documents must be sent via registered post to the concerned regional office within three days following the application deadline.
Written and Practical Examination Requirements
The board has clarified that students who have failed in both the written and practical components of the High School Improvement or Compartment examinations, as well as the Intermediate Compartment examination, must appear for both parts.
For candidates who have passed one component of a subject but failed the other, there is flexibility in the examination process. Such students may choose to appear only for the component in which they failed. Alternatively, if they prefer, they can opt to take both the written and practical examinations again.
Step-by-Step Application Process
Students are advised to follow a systematic approach when submitting their applications to avoid any errors or delays. The process involves several key steps that must be completed in sequence.
