The dates for the June 2024 re-examination of the University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test (UGC NET) are set for August 21 to September 4. The UGC NET re-examination will now be administered by the NTA using a computer-based test (CBT) format, which is a substantial change from the pen-and-paper method that was first utilised for the exam in June.

On June 18, the UGC NET was cancelled one day after it was scheduled. There were worries that the "integrity of the examination might have been compromised," which led to the cancellation.
