About TGCET (Gurukulam 5th Class) 2026

The Telangana Gurukulam Common Entrance Test (TGCET) is conducted for admission into 5th Class in various Residential Schools (Gurukulams) across Telangana (TREIS, TSWREIS, TTWREIS, MJPTBCWREIS).

Strict Image Requirements

For 2026, the application system has very specific and strict requirements for the uploaded image. A single file containing both the photo and signature must be uploaded.

Official Specifications:

  • Format: .jpg or .jpeg only.
  • File Size: Strictly LESS THAN 50 KB. (If it is 51 KB, it will be rejected. We aim for 30-40 KB).
  • Structure: Student's Photo (Top) + Signature (Bottom).

Why Use This Tool?

Achieving a file size under 50 KB while maintaining clarity for the photo and signature can be tricky. Using general editors often results in files that are either too large or blurry. Our tool:

  • Combines the photo and signature in the correct vertical arrangement.
  • Automatically compresses the result to ensure it is safely under the 50 KB limit (targeting 30-40 KB).
  • Ensures the dimensions aspect ratio is correct for the application form.

💡 Note: Since this is for 5th class admission, the signature can be of the student (if they can sign) or simply the name written clearly. Follow the specific instructions in the official notification regarding whose signature is required.

Complete Guide to TGCET 2026 Image Upload

The application process for **TGCET 2026 (Telangana Gurukulam Common Entrance Test)** requires special attention to the image upload section. Unlike most exams where you upload photo and signature separately, TGCET mandates a **combined image format**.

Understanding the "Combined Image" Requirement

The official notification explicitly states that the candidate must upload a single image file containing two distinct parts:

  1. Top Part: Recent Passport Size Photograph of the student (3.5 cm x 4.5 cm).
  2. Bottom Part: Signature of the student (or guardian if student cannot sign) (3.5 cm x 1.5 cm).

When combined vertically, the final image dimensions become **3.5 cm (Width) x 6.0 cm (Height)**.

Why is this tricky?

Creating this specific layout using standard photo editors can be difficult. You need to align them perfectly, maintain the aspect ratio, and critically, insure the final file size is **strictly under 50 KB**. If the file is even 51 KB, the portal will reject it with an error. Our tool solves this instantly.

Common Rejection Reasons

  • Incorrect File Size: Files larger than 50 KB are the #1 reason for failure.
  • Wrong Format: Using PNG or PDF instead of JPG/JPEG.
  • Blurry Text: If the signature is photographed in low light, it becomes unreadable after compression. Always sign on bright white paper with black ink.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Clarifications for Parents & Students

No. The TGCET online application form has only ONE button to "Upload Photo". This single file must contain both the photo and the signature merged together. If you upload just a photo, your application will be incomplete.
Usually, the student (applicant) simply writes their name. It doesn't have to be a stylized signature. Check the specific instruction in the current year's notification. If the child cannot sign, a parent/guardian signature might be accepted, but generally, the student's name in their own handwriting is preferred.
Yes, absolutely. This tool runs entirely in your browser (Client-Side). Your child's photo and signature are never uploaded to our servers. Processing happens on your device, ensuring complete privacy.
