Complete Guide to MHT CET Image Upload

Applying for MHT CET 2026 (Engineering, Pharmacy, Agriculture)? Ensure your registration proceeds smoothly by submitting perfectly sized photos and signatures. Use our free tool to automatically resize to the exact dimensions specified by the CET Cell.

The State Common Entrance Test Cell, Maharashtra accepts online applications for various UG programs through their official portal.

A critical step in the online application process is uploading your **Photograph** and **Signature**. The portal has very specific requirements for file sizes and dimensions, particularly for the photograph, which now requires a high-resolution 2x2 inch image.

📸 Photograph Specifications (Updated)

The system now favors high-resolution files. Tiny 50 KB photos from previous years may look blurry on the new admit cards.

  • Face Coverage: Your face must occupy 80% of the photograph area.
  • File Size: Minimum 100 KB to Maximum 5 MB.
  • Format: .JPG or .JPEG only.

2. Visual Standards

  • Background: Strictly White or a very light color.

⚠️ High Rejection Risk: Dimensions

  • ❌ Incorrect Face Coverage: Ensure your face is zoomed in to cover 80% of the photograph area. Distant shots will be rejected.
