Your EMAT test date and time reach you as a message. IIM Kozhikode (IIMK) publishes no EMAT exam admit card. You cannot download a hall ticket. A missed message can therefore mean a missed test. No EMAT exam admit card 2027 release date exists, and IIMK has announced no EMAT for 2027.
Do not wait for a downloadable admit card
2026-10-20IIM Kozhikode says test details are communicated to shortlisted candidates after the registration closure date. It does not publish an admit card. Any page that offers an EMAT hall ticket download is not an IIMK page.
EMAT means Executive Management Aptitude Test. IIM Kozhikode (IIMK) uses it to screen working professionals for its MBA for Working Executives, earlier called EPGP. EMAT is not a national exam, so no central body issues hall tickets. IIM Kashipur runs a different test with the same name. This page follows the IIMK test unless it says Kashipur. The EMAT 2027 dates page lists when each phase ran.
IIMK publishes no EMAT exam admit card. You get your entry details by message after shortlisting.
IIMK handles the EMAT exam admit card step through a simple message to each shortlisted candidate. The table gives the main facts about the IIMK EMAT from the admission policy of the 2026-28 batch. Expected, not confirmed: the EMAT exam admit card 2027 step will work the same way if IIMK repeats its process.

No. IIMK publishes no EMAT exam admit card for the IL-Kozhikode programme. So there is no EMAT exam admit card to wait for. The IIMK Kochi FAQ also describes only an email. That email gives the date and time of the test and the interview.
In practice, yes. The email, or the message IIMK sends, is the only entry detail IIMK describes. IIMK has not published a list of what that message contains. Treat it as your EMAT exam admit card and save it.

There is no EMAT exam admit card release date, because IIMK does not release an admit card. The nearest official marker is the registration closure date of each phase. IIMK says it communicates the test details to shortlisted candidates after that date. It has fixed no release date for that message.
Here is what the 2026-28 batch shows about the wait. Each IIMK EMAT exam date came 2 to 20 days after the application window closed. That gap is our own count from IIMK's dates.
| Phase | Window closed | First EMAT date |
|---|---|---|
| Phase I | 15 May 2026 | 17 May 2026 |
| Phase II | 12 Jul 2026 | 19 Jul 2026 |
| Phase III | 17 Aug 2026 | 6 Sep 2026 |
| Phase IV | 30 Sep 2026 | 4 Oct 2026 |
In Phase I, the gap was only 2 days. A candidate who applied on the last day could have very little time. So keep your email open from the day your window closes.
IIM Kashipur lists "communication to applicants for EMAT" on 24 December 2026. Its EMAT is two days later, on 26 December 2026. It does not call this an admit card.
The EMAT exam admit card 2027 will not be released as a document, and no release date will apply. For 2027, IIMK has published no application window, no EMAT dates and no admission policy. Follow the EMAT exam date page for the new calendar.
You cannot download an EMAT exam admit card. The steps below help the IIMK EMAT message reach you. These steps follow IIMK's process, plus our advice where marked.
Shortlisted applicants who sit EMAT will receive it. A candidate who uses a qualifying CAT, GMAT or GRE score in place of EMAT may not sit the test. IIMK's policy lists shortlisting as the first stage and EMAT with the interview as the next stages.
Write to the IIMK admission office, or call 0495-2809 418. IIMK has published no self-service way to retrieve the slot. Quote your registered email and mobile number.
IIMK has no EMAT exam admit card download link. The pages below are the only official places to apply, log in and ask for help.
No official EMAT hall ticket link exists
Do not enter your details on any site that promises an EMAT exam admit card download. IIMK does not publish one, and such a page is not from IIMK.
With no EMAT exam admit card, IIMK has not published what its message contains. The EMAT exam date and time are the first details to check. The IIMK Kochi FAQ says it gives the date and time of the entrance test and the interview. Check the points below as soon as you read it. This is our advice, not an IIMK list.
If the message does not show a login method, ask IIMK before the test day. IIMK has not published the proctoring system, the device rules or the browser rules for the online EMAT.
IIMK has not published the test duration, the number of questions, the marking scheme or the reporting time for EMAT. Our EMAT exam pattern page lists what the official sample papers show.
With no EMAT exam admit card, IIMK has published no ID rule for the EMAT day. You upload your documents at the application stage, not on the test day. These include scanned certificates, proof of work experience and an employer reference letter.
The IIMK Kochi FAQ tells applicants not to send paper documents or printouts of the application form to the campus. The exception is when IIMK asks for them in writing. For the IL-Kozhikode programme, no such instruction is published.
For the online IIMK EMAT, keep these ready. This is advice, not an IIMK rule.
IIMK conducts the EMAT and the Personal Interview online. There is no EMAT exam admit card with printed rules, and IIMK has published no exam day guidelines. The facts below are what IIMK does say.
IIMK has not published the webcam, device or browser rules. It has also not published the dress code, prohibited items or biometric checks. So confirm these with the admission office after you get your slot. Confirm the EMAT exam date again a day before.
Write to IIMK to confirm the login method and rules. Then test your internet and device a day earlier. Keep your phone within reach for OTP. These steps are our advice. After the test, IIMK checks your marks against the cut-off, and the EMAT cutoff page lists those percentages.
Most problems come from the missing EMAT exam admit card, not from a faulty download. The table lists the usual ones and the step to take.
| Issue | What to do |
|---|---|
| No message after the window closed | Check spam, then write to epgpadmission@iimk.ac.in |
| Cannot find the admit card on the portal | None exists. Wait for IIMK's message |
| OTP does not arrive | Use the help page, then try the email OTP option |
| Wrong email in the application | Contact IIMK at once. A correction window is not published |
| Confused with the IIM Kashipur test | Check which institute you applied to |
IIMK has published no EMAT-specific grievance process. The contact page lists phone numbers for the admission office, including 0495-2809 418.
IIM Kashipur does not call anything an admit card on the pages we read. It lists communication to applicants on 24 December 2026, before its EMAT on 26 December 2026.
There is no EMAT step for you, so there is nothing to receive. IIMK can use a CAT score of 75 percentile or more. It can also use a GMAT of 700 or more, or a GRE at its stated cut-offs. The score must not be older than 3 years as on 17 May 2026.
IIMK has not announced anything for 2027. The 2026-28 process had no admit card. IIMK may change its process at its discretion, so check the admission page when the next batch opens.

He plans the organic content strategy and also owns the structured data that feeds it. He works with a team of product managers, engineers, QA, designers, writers, and SEO specialists. Together they create guides for Indian students and parents on colleges, entrance exams, and studying abroad. Atul has built a step-by-step content process that uses AI tools with a human in the loop. Every page goes through several stages. It starts with research, where each fact is checked on the official source. A second, independent source is then used to confirm that the fact is correct and the latest. Third-party sites are used only to spot differences and are never treated as a source. Before writing, the team studies what students actually search for and what the top results leave out. This study covers Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, ChatGPT, and Perplexity, including AI answers and “People also ask” questions. Pages written by Atul are in plain English that can be understood in one read, and they open with the question the reader is most likely to have. Before a page goes live, every number, name, date, and fact is checked again against its official source. Finally, an editor reads and humanises every page, however good the draft is. Atul believes that advice on education should be simple, honest, and based on official facts. Fees and figures should come with their source. A student should be told clearly when a college is not the right fit.
