BEST REAGRDS

Hello,

In SSC OTR, you should always keep your details updated. Since your graduation will complete in June 2026, by the time of SSC CGL 2026 notification you will be a graduate.

So, you will need to update your highest qualification to "Graduate" in your OTR before applying for SSC CGL 2026. Only then the application window will show for you.

Hope it helps !

You don’t need to worry much because such a small mistake in the identification mark is not a serious issue in SSC CGL. During document verification, the authorities mainly check your certificates, identity proof and eligibility, so the left or right side mentioned for the mark will not affect your selection. If a correction window is given you can edit it, otherwise you can explain the mistake during verification and it will be accepted.
