November 10 is the first date KIITEE 2027 applicants need to remember. The Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) in Bhubaneswar will open Phase 1 registration on that day through its official portal, kiitee.kiit.ac.in. The entrance test covers admission to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes at the university.
The date comes from the KIITEE 2027 schedule published on November 3. Collegedunia and Shiksha both list November 10, 2026, as the Phase 1 registration opening date, and both point applicants to the same portal. That leaves six days from November 4 to gather documents before the window opens.
What the schedule confirms so far
Only the opening date is confirmed so far. The last date for Phase 1 applications, the admit card release date and the result date are still to be announced, and those dates will appear in the official information brochure. The Phase 1 exam itself is expected in April 2027, though Shiksha marks that month as tentative. Applicants should treat April as the expected window, not a fixed exam date, until KIIT publishes the full schedule.

Who the exam covers
KIITEE is the entrance examination for KIIT, a deemed university in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. It is a computer-based test held at centres across India, and the paper varies with the programme a candidate chooses. For BTech, the paper covers Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Candidates for other streams face subjects linked to their chosen course.
Eligibility depends on the programme. For BTech, applicants need Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics, plus Chemistry, Biology or Biotechnology as a third subject, and at least 60% in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics taken together. Students appearing for the Class 12 examination in 2027 can also register.
How to apply
The application process runs online through the official KIITEE portal. The steps are:
- Visit kiitee.kiit.ac.in on or after November 10, 2026.
- Open the KIITEE 2027 Phase 1 registration link.
- Fill in personal, academic and contact details.
- Upload a scanned photograph and signature in the required format.
- Submit the form and download the confirmation page.
Read the whole form again before submitting, and check that the details match your school records. Our admission documents checklist is worth a look here, since the photograph, signature and mark sheets you upload should match the documents you will need later in admission.
What to watch next
The information brochure is the next document to watch. It should confirm the Phase 1 last date, the exam schedule and the admit card timeline. Until then, the confirmed facts are the November 10 opening, the portal address and the April 2027 exam expectation. Candidates should check kiitee.kiit.ac.in for updates, since the schedule pages still mark several dates as tentative or to be announced.
