MICAT 2027 Registration & Application Form: Steps, Fees, Dates & Documents

The MICAT 2027 registration is conducted online by MICA Ahmedabad. You create a login, fill the application in stages, upload documents, link your entrance-test score and pay the fee. The MICAT exam itself is held twice — MICAT-I in December and MICAT-II in February — and you can register for one or both windows through the same application.

MICA is expected to open MICAT 2027 registration around September 2026, with the application window running through roughly October–November 2026 ahead of MICAT-I in early December. A second registration/edit opportunity typically precedes MICAT-II in February. These dates are indicative, based on MICA's recent cycles, and will be confirmed only when the official MICAT 2027 notification is released.

Here is how to apply for MICAT 2027 from start to finish. The MICAT application form is completed in a logical sequence, and you can save your progress and return before final submission.

1. One-time registration: visit mica.ac.in, create your account with a valid email ID and mobile number, and set a password. This generates your login for the entire process.

2. Personal details: enter your name, date of birth, contact details and other personal information exactly as per your official records.

3. Reference details: provide the referee/reference information as required by the form.

4. Photograph and signature: upload your recent passport-size photograph and scanned signature as per the specifications.

5. Academic details: enter your 10th, 12th and graduation marks and institution details.

6. Test-centre preference: select your preferred MICAT exam city from the list of centres.

7. Entrance-test score: enter your CAT 2026 / XAT 2027 / GMAT registration number or score details.

8. Fee payment: pay the applicable MICAT registration fee online to complete your application.

The whole MICAT registration typically takes 30–45 minutes if you have your documents ready, and you can save and resume before final payment. Only after the fee is paid and confirmed is your application for the MICAT exam considered complete — an unsubmitted or unpaid form does not reserve your seat or test city.

The MICAT application form is organised into clear sections that mirror the steps above. Understanding them in advance helps you gather the right information and move through the form without interruptions. The main sections are personal information, reference details, academic record, photograph and signature upload, test-centre preference, entrance-test score, and fee payment.

Because the form links directly to your CAT, XAT or GMAT record, keep those details accurate — a mismatch can delay verification of your MICAT 2027 registration. Enter academic percentages exactly as they appear on your marksheets, since MICA uses your 10th, 12th and graduation marks in the final selection.

You do not upload every certificate at the MICAT application form stage, but you should have the following ready for the form and for later verification. The photograph and signature must be uploaded during registration in the format the portal specifies.

• Recent passport-size colour photograph (scanned, as per the portal's size and format limits)

• Scanned signature (as per the portal's specifications)

• Class 10 and Class 12 marksheets/certificates

• Graduation marksheets and degree/provisional certificate

• Valid CAT 2026 / XAT 2027 / GMAT scorecard or registration details

• A valid photo identity document

As per MICA's recent practice, the MICAT 2027 registration fee is a single admission processing fee of ₹2,500, which includes the MICAT exam fee, for applying to one programme. If you apply to more than one programme, an additional ₹500 is charged per extra programme, subject to MICA's rules on how many programmes and schools you may choose. The MICAT registration fee is paid online at the end of the application through the available digital payment modes.

Note that the MICAT registration fee is non-refundable, so pay only after you have reviewed your MICAT application form carefully. MICA Ahmedabad accepts the application fee online through standard digital modes at the final step, and your registration is treated as complete only once the payment is confirmed. If your payment is debited but not confirmed, do not immediately pay again — check your application status first, as a second attempt may result in a duplicate application fee.

MICA lets you apply to more than one programme in a single MICAT 2027 registration, up to the limit MICA specifies, by paying the additional per-programme fee. However, a single MICAT attempt maps to one school only, because the MICAT paper differs between the School of Management and the School of Applied Creativity. So plan your programme choices around the school you are targeting before you pay the application fee.

During MICAT registration, you select your preferred test city from MICA's list of centres, which typically spans around 48 cities across India, including major hubs in the Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Pune and other cities. Centre allocation is subject to availability, so choosing early in the window improves your chance of getting your preferred location for the MICAT exam.

A distinctive part of the MICAT application form is linking your national entrance-test score. You must enter valid CAT 2026, XAT 2027 or GMAT details during registration, because MICA requires this score both for eligibility and for final selection, where it carries the highest weight. Ensure the registration number and personal details match your test record exactly to avoid verification delays. If you have appeared for more than one of these tests, follow the form's instructions on which score to submit.

If you notice an error after submission, MICA may provide a correction/edit window for certain fields; check the portal and official communication for what can be changed and until when. For common issues during MICAT 2027 registration, use the practical checks below before contacting MICA support.

• Payment made but not confirmed: wait for the confirmation email and check your application status before re-paying; contact support if the amount is debited without confirmation.

• Photo/signature rejected: re-scan to match the portal's size and format specifications and re-upload.

• Score not accepted: re-check that your CAT/XAT/GMAT registration number and personal details exactly match your test record.

• Cannot log in: use the password-reset option with your registered email/mobile before creating a new account.

Once your MICAT 2027 registration is submitted and the fee is paid, MICA Ahmedabad verifies your details and, closer to the exam, releases your admit card. The admit card is issued online through the same login you created during MICAT registration, and you must download and carry a printout to the test centre along with a valid photo ID. Keep checking your registered email and the MICA portal for admit-card release and any exam-day instructions.

After the MICAT exam, MICA publishes your scorecard, shortlists candidates for the Group Exercise and Personal Interview, and finally releases the merit list. Your MICAT 2027 registration login remains your single point of access for the admit card, scorecard and shortlist status throughout the cycle, so do not lose your credentials. To understand how your score feeds into selection, read the MBAUniverse.com MICAT 2027 Exam Pattern guide.

A little preparation makes the MICAT registration quick and error-free. Because some fields cannot be edited after submission and centre allotment is first-come, applying early in the window is the single best move you can make. Keep these practical tips in mind before you pay the application fee.

• Register early — preferred test cities fill up, and MICA Ahmedabad allots centres subject to availability.

• Use a personal email ID and mobile number you check regularly; all official communication and the admit card go there.

• Enter names, dates and marks exactly as per your official documents to avoid verification issues.

• Match your CAT/XAT/GMAT details precisely to your test record before paying the application fee.

• Complete the fee payment in one attempt and wait for the confirmation before retrying, to avoid a duplicate application fee.

• Take a screenshot or printout of the submitted MICAT application form and the payment confirmation for your records.

In summary, the MICAT 2027 registration is a fully online process on mica.ac.in: create a login, fill the MICAT application form in stages, upload your photograph and signature, enter your academic and CAT/XAT/GMAT details, choose your test city, and pay the MICAT registration fee — ₹2,500 including MICAT for one programme, with ₹500 per additional programme (verify the exact 2027 fee). Registration is expected to open around September 2026, but confirm all dates and figures from MICA's official notification. Before you register, make sure you meet the MICAT 2027 Eligibility conditions, and track deadlines on the MICAT 2027 Exam Dates page.
