GTU releases an official academic calendar each year, and the 2026-27 calendar is the roadmap every engineering student should plan their semester around. The headline: the Odd Term concludes on 30 October 2026, and the regular odd semester theory examinations are tentatively scheduled for late November to December 2026. Here is everything you need to know — plus how to use the time wisely.

gtu.ac.in and your GTU Student Portal for the exam form and timetable in your course.Why The 30 October Semester-End Date Matters
In GTU's pattern, your practical and viva sessions typically finish before the theory exams. That means from late October onwards you should already be:
- Collecting and solving previous year question papers for your subjects.
- Finishing chapter-wise revision while internal assessments are still on.
- Clearing doubts with your subject teachers, not in exam week.
Students who start past-paper practice six weeks ahead consistently score better than those who begin after exams are announced. Use our step-by-step routine on how to use GTU previous year question papers.
MOOC Registration & Exemption Update
GTU has reopened registration and exemption-related processes for MOOCs completed during the January 2026 and July 2026 MOOC terms. If you finished a MOOC in either term and have not yet claimed your exemption (extra credit), log in to the student portal and complete it before the reopened window closes.
