Important news! UPSC launches new application portal, now the process of application will be even easier

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has taken a big step for the convenience of the candidates and launched a new application portal from 28 May 2025. Now, to participate in all the UPSC examinations, candidates will have to apply through this new portal. Its purpose is to make the application process more simple, faster and transparent.

Till now the one time registration (OTR) system used to run has been closed. Now the candidates will have to apply directly by visiting https://upsconline.nic.in and uploading their documents here. This change has been implemented by the Commission especially from exams like CDS Exam-II, 2025 and NDA & NA-II, 2025, whose notification has also been issued on May 28.

What is the specialty of the new portal?

UPSC has informed that this new portal is divided into four parts, so that students do not face any problem while applying …

Account Creation – Candidates can first make their profiles.

Registration – Through this, the profile will be prepared by filling the basic information.

Common Application Form – General details will have to be filled here for all examinations.

Exam Specific Section – For a particular examination, the necessary information will have to be filled as per the notification.

Relief from time and trouble

UPSC Says that this new system will save students from the last time hurry. Now candidates can fill the first three parts whenever they want and as soon as no examination notification comes, they can complete the application by going to the fourth part. This will also save time and the experience of applying will be better than before.

Aadhaar card required for identity

The Commission has also suggested that all the candidates should use Aadhaar card as proof while applying. This will easily confirm their identity and there will be no possibility of disturbance in any document. Also, information related to Aadhaar will be in the form of a permanent record in all examinations.
