BITSAT IMPORTANT DATES 2025

ABOUT THE EXAM:
BITSAT, unlike a traditional paper pen test, is a computer-based test. The candidate sits in front of the computer and answers the question on the screen using a monitor or keyboard. Each computer is connected to a server, which prepares the question set and delivers it to the candidate on the computer. This is unlike the traditional paper-pencil-based test, which is generally offered on a single day to all students.
The salient features are given below:

A candidate may appear a maximum of two times in BITSAT

The examination will be organized in two sets of dates, BITSAT Session 1 and BITSAT Session 2, separated by a gap of a few weeks. The candidate can choose the Center, the Day, and the slot of his/her convenience to take the test, as described later in this document.

A candidate who wishes to appear twice may do so, once during the first set of dates, and the second time during the second set. 

A candidate may opt to appear twice, even at the time of the first application. Such a candidate will then choose one slot from the first set of dates and another from the second. 

A candidate may also choose to appear the second time after the first appearance. To facilitate this process, there will be a period during which candidates who have appeared during Session 1 but had not originally exercised the option to appear twice, will be allowed to apply to appear a second time.

The application window will reopen immediately after the end date of Session 1 of BITSAT, only for those who appeared for Session 1 and choose to appear for a second time.

The student who has not applied for session 1 is not eligible to apply for session 2. 

A candidate who chooses to appear twice will have to pay a sum of Rs. 5400 (for a male candidate) and Rs. 4400 (for a female candidate). A candidate who originally opts to appear once (Session 1), will pay a fee of Rs. 3400 (for a male candidate) and Rs. 2900 (for a female candidate). If such a candidate chooses then to apply to appear a second time (Session 2), then he/she will have to pay an additional sum of Rs. 2000 (for a male candidate) and Rs. 1500 (for a female candidate). This fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. 

For a candidate who has appeared twice in BITSAT 2023, and then seeks admission to any of the First-Degree programs in BITS Pilani, the higher of the two scores will be considered for admission.
