The ICSI has announced a re-opening of the enrollment (examination application) window for the December 2025 session of the CS Executive and CS Professional programmes. The window is active again from today, October 23, 2025, at 10:00 AM and will remain open until October 25, 2025, 11:59 PM. This reopening allows candidates to submit their application/enrolment forms, pay late fees, make corrections/additions of modules, apply for exemptions, or modify details.
It’s a second chance for those who either missed the earlier deadline or who need to make changes (for example: add a group, change exam centre/medium, request exemption on higher qualification, or correct errors).

Why This Re-Open & What are Corrections Allowed?
Initially, the enrollment window for December 2025 opened on August 26, 2025 and the last date without late fee was around September 25–26, 2025. Because of demand and to accommodate corrections, ICSI has given this short re-open in late October.
The reopening allows the following:
Candidates to enrol with late fee (for the December 2025 CS exam).
Candidates who already enrolled may request additions of modules (for example, if they now want to attempt both groups).
Application for exemptions based on higher qualifications (where applicable) with necessary fees.
Corrections such as modification of medium (English/Hindi), exam centre preference, change in optional subject, etc.
It is vital to note that only those candidates already registered for the CS Executive or CS Professional programme(or eligible to enroll) will be able to take advantage of this window. It is not a fresh registration for the programme, but an enrolment for that specific December 2025 examination session.
Key Dates & Fees for December 2025 Session
Here are the important dates and fee-related details:
Registration (programme) for Executive/Professional should already have been completed.

Who Should Use This Re-Open Window?
Candidates who fit any of the following should act now:
You registered for CS Executive/Professional but missed the original enrollment deadline (without late fee).
You selected only one group but now wish to attempt both groups in December 2025.
You need to change exam centre, medium (English/Hindi), optional subject.
You have higher qualification and wish to claim exemption for certain papers—need to submit request and fee.
You discovered an error in your earlier application and need to correct it before admit card issuance.
If you have already enrolled correctly and don’t require changes, you just need to ensure your fee and documentation are fully in order. But this window offers flexibility.
How to Apply/Make Corrections: Step-by-Step
Visit the ICSI official portal: www.icsi.edu → Student Login → My Account.
Choose “Examination Enrollment – December 2025” link.
Select applicable options: add module(s), apply for exemption, change medium/centre etc.
Upload required documents (for example, higher qualification certificate in case of exemption).
Pay the enrollment fee plus any late fee or service charge (if applicable).
Submit and download the acknowledgement/receipt. Make note of your enrollment number.
Post submission, print the confirmation and keep a copy; keep checking for admit card once released.
Important Conditions & Things to Keep in Mind
Only candidates already registered for CS Executive/Professional programme can apply for enrollment. Program registration is separate from exam enrollment.
Completion of mandatory prerequisites is required—for example: Pre-Examination Test (PET) for both Executive & Professional programmes; One Day Orientation Programme (ODOP) for Executive programme (if registered before Feb 2025).
If you enroll with late fee, ensure you meet the cut-offs and deadlines for the December session, including fulfilling documentation requirements.
Ensure you select correct medium, exam centre, optional subject—changes after enrollment may not be allowed.
Keep a close watch on time—window from 23 to 25 October is short. Don’t wait till last minute.

Why This Matters & What’s Next
This reopening is significant because:
December sessions are crucial for many candidates who want to attempt either or both groups in the final year or want to speed up their CS qualification timeline.
Missing earlier deadlines could delay progression by six months — so this window offers a lifeline.
Once enrollment is done, students must prepare, pay attention to admit-card release, exam venue/medium, and schedule.
Next steps after enrollment:
Download admit card when announced (likely a few weeks prior to exam).
Check exam timetable and plan revision accordingly.
Complete any remaining PET/ODOP, submit any required documents.
Attend exam from 22–29 December 2025 for Executive/Professional.
After examination, await declaration of results (likely in Feb/Mar 2026).
