The Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) Pilani will release the Birla Institute of Technology and Science Admission Test (BITSAT) 2026 Iteration 1 admit list and waitlist on June 20, 2026. The announcement will be hosted on the official admissions portal at admissions.bits-pilani.ac.in. Candidates who filled their programme preferences during the choice-filling window can check their allotment status from that date.
BITS Pilani will run the BITSAT 2026 counselling across seven iterations in total. Iteration 2 is scheduled for July 1, 2026. After each iteration, the institute publishes a fresh admit list and waitlist based on candidate ranks and stated preferences.
BITSAT 2026 Counselling Key Dates
The institute has confirmed the following counselling milestones for the 2026 admission cycle. Candidates must track these dates on the official portal.

What the Admit List and Waitlist Mean
The admit list contains the names of candidates who have been offered a seat in a specific programme and campus. The waitlist contains candidates who have not yet received an offer but stand a strong chance in later iterations. Allotments depend on the candidate's BITSAT score, programme preferences, and seat availability.
Seats are offered across the three BITS campuses at Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad. Allotment is governed strictly by merit-cum-preference rules.

How to Accept the Allotted Seat?
Candidates listed in the Iteration 1 admit list must accept the offered seat through the portal. Acceptance is completed by paying the admission fee within the deadline notified for Iteration 1.
Candidates who wish to be considered for an upgrade in later iterations can opt in while accepting the current seat. Those who skip the acceptance step will lose the offered seat.
BITS Pilani runs seven iterations to fill every seat fairly. A candidate who is waitlisted in Iteration 1 can still secure a seat in later rounds. Preferences locked during choice filling drive every allotment.
