The normal-fee window (up to Shrawan 16 — August 1) ended at midnight NPT, and the double-fee late window at Rs. 3,900 stays open until the portal closes tonight. Submit before it shuts — after today no applications are accepted for 2083. Already applied? Focus on the entrance exam on Shrawan 24 (August 9, 2026).
Before You Start
- A stable internet connection and the latest browser.
- A working email address and mobile number you check daily.
- Your marksheets (grades 11 & 12) and SEE/SLC for reference.
- A passport-size photo in the size/format the form asks for.
- The application fee ready in Khalti, eSewa, or as a bank voucher.
Step 1 — Online Registration
- Open the official TU admission portal — as announced in the official application notice (PDF) and accessible from iost.tu.edu.np.
- Click New Applicant Registration and enter your name, email, mobile number and password.
- Verify your account using the OTP sent to your email or phone.
- Save your login credentials somewhere safe — you will need them for the admit card too.
Step 2 — Fee Payment
- Log in and open the Application / Fee Payment section.
- Pay the CSIT form submission fee online via Khalti, eSewa or a bank voucher. The exact fee is announced in the notice — keep the payment reference or receipt.
- Wait for the portal to confirm the payment; this can take a few minutes, so don't double-pay.
Don't skipYour form is not submitted until the fee is paid and the payment is verified. With the late window closing tonight, submit as early as possible and confirm the payment went through.
Step 3 — Form Filling
- Fill personal details exactly as they appear on your citizenship or passport — no nicknames.
- Enter your grade 11 and grade 12 marks subject by subject, matching the marksheets.
- Select your preferred exam center (if an option is given).
- List your college preferences for seat allotment, if the form asks for them.
Step 4 — Upload Documents
- Upload clear, recent scans in the exact size and format stated (usually JPG/PDF).
- Typical uploads: passport-size photo, marksheets, SEE certificate, and any equivalence document.
- Check every upload by opening the preview before submitting.
Step 5 — Verification & Submission
- Review the full form once — spelling, marks, preferences.
- Submit, then download and print the application receipt.
- Keep the receipt and your login saved until the admit card is out.
- If your form is returned or rejected, fix the noted issue and resubmit before the deadline.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Uploading blurry or cropped documents. Verification rejects them and the re-upload window is short.
- Mismatched name spelling. Your form, marksheet and admit card must all match.
- Wrong marks or wrong subject order. Triple-check against the marksheet.
- Paying and not submitting the form. A paid but unsubmitted application is useless.
- Waiting for the final day. Payment delays, server load and verification issues are common on deadline day.
