SAMARTH Admission Portal 2026: Apply Online for Assam College Admission

In a major bid to streamline the higher education admission process, the Government of Assam has officially launched the common online admission portal called SAMARTH. This portal serves as a single-window platform for students seeking admission into the Four-Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUGP) and the Five-Year Integrated Masters Programme (FYIMP) for the academic session 2026-2027. It covers all Government, Provincialized, PDUAM, Government Model Colleges, and State Universities across Assam.

“Samarth” is a massive initiative originally launched by the Ministry of Education under the National Mission on Education. Students aspiring to take admissions will no longer have to travel from college to college submitting offline forms. The integrated Assam State Higher Education Admission Portal allows students to register and apply to up to ten colleges of their choice purely on a merit basis, saving both time and money.
