The Osmania University Time Table 2026 for MDHM is now available for students of the Master's Degree in Hospital Management course. This update is mainly for candidates appearing in the May 2026 examination cycle under either the old scheme or the new scheme. The most useful thing to know first is that the timetable spans from 5 May 2026 to 3 June 2026, with separate time slots and batch applicability depending on the semester and scheme.
The university has issued separate timetable notices for the old scheme and the new scheme. The old scheme notice covers I, II, III and IV semester backlog and improvement papers. The new scheme notice covers IV semester regular and backlog, II semester regular and backlog, and I and III semester backlog and improvement papers. That difference matters because many students only check the course name and miss the scheme or semester-specific rules.
This page is structured to help students find what they actually need: the full exam window, semester-wise dates, timing differences between old and new scheme papers, which batches are covered, how to download the official timetable, and what to verify before the exam. Where something is not confirmed in the timetable notice itself, it is clearly treated as not yet announced.
Latest MDHM Time Table 2026 Status
Osmania University has released the MDHM May 2026 timetable through its official examination portal. The exam notifications page lists the MDHM old scheme and new scheme time tables on 18 April 2026, while the timetable PDFs themselves are dated 17 April 2026.
Students should treat the timetable as officially released and final unless a revised notice is posted later. Since separate notices exist for the two schemes, candidates should first identify whether they belong to the old scheme or the new scheme before checking paper dates.
| Item | Status |
|---|---|
| Timetable released | Yes |
| Course | MDHM |
| Exam month | May 2026 |
| Notices issued separately | Yes, for old scheme and new scheme |
| Official listing date | 18 April 2026 |
| PDF notice date | 17 April 2026 |
Release Date and Overall Exam Window
For most students, the key date range is the overall exam window. Across the MDHM timetable notices, the May 2026 examinations begin on 5 May 2026 and continue up to 3 June 2026.
The first set of papers belongs to II and IV semesters and starts on 5 May 2026. The later set belongs to I and III semesters and starts on 21 May 2026. This creates two distinct phases in the timetable, so candidates should not assume their exams begin in the first week unless their semester actually matches those dates.
| Phase | Covered Semesters | Date Range |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | II and IV Semester papers | 5 May 2026 to 20 May 2026 |
| Phase 2 | I and III Semester papers | 21 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
| Overall window | All MDHM papers in these notices | 5 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
Which MDHM Students Are Covered in the 2026 Time Table
The 2026 MDHM timetable does not apply to all students in the same way. Osmania University has split coverage by scheme, semester, and exam type.
- Old Scheme covers I, II, III and IV Semester backlog and improvement examinations.
- New Scheme covers IV Semester regular and backlog examinations.
- New Scheme also covers II Semester regular and backlog examinations.
- For New Scheme I and III Semesters, the notice is for backlog and improvement examinations.
This is the most important classification to verify before planning preparation or downloading the wrong timetable PDF.
New Scheme MDHM Time Table 2026 Summary
The new scheme timetable is meant for a mix of regular, backlog and improvement candidates depending on semester. It also uses a shorter exam duration than the old scheme in most papers.
| Semester | Exam Type | Batch Applicability | Timing | Marks | Date Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IV Semester | Regular and Backlog | 2024 and 2023 batch only | 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM | 60 | 5 May 2026 to 11 May 2026 |
| II Semester | Regular and Backlog | 2025, 2024 and 2023 batch only | 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM | 60, with one 40-mark paper | 5 May 2026 to 20 May 2026 |
| III Semester | Backlog and Improvement | 2024 and 2023 batch only | 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM | 60 | 21 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
| I Semester | Backlog and Improvement | 2025, 2024 and 2023 batch only | 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM | 60 | 21 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
If you are a new scheme student, match both your batch year and semester before relying on any paper date.
Old Scheme MDHM Time Table 2026 Summary
The old scheme notice is specifically for backlog and improvement examinations. It applies to 2022 batch candidates only across the listed semesters.
| Semester | Exam Type | Batch Applicability | Timing | Marks | Date Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IV Semester | Backlog and Improvement | 2022 batch only | 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM | 80 | 5 May 2026 to 11 May 2026 |
| II Semester | Backlog | 2022 batch only | 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM | 80, with one 60-mark paper | 5 May 2026 to 20 May 2026 |
| III Semester | Backlog | 2022 batch only | 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM | 80 | 21 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
| I Semester | Backlog | 2022 batch only | 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM | 80 | 21 May 2026 to 3 June 2026 |
Old scheme students should be careful because the timing and marks pattern are different from the new scheme notice even where the paper dates are the same.

Timings, Marks and Batch Rules You Should Not Miss
The MDHM timetable is straightforward only if you read the small distinctions properly. Many students focus on the paper date and miss the separate timing, marks and batch instructions mentioned in the notice.
- Old Scheme IV and III Semester papers are scheduled from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
- Old Scheme II and I Semester papers are scheduled from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
- New Scheme IV and III Semester papers are scheduled from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM.
- New Scheme II and I Semester papers are scheduled from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM.
- Old Scheme is marked for 2022 batch only in the timetable.
- New Scheme batch applicability changes by semester and must be checked carefully.
The marks pattern is also not identical. Old scheme papers are generally listed as 80 marks, while new scheme papers are generally listed as 60 marks. The Health Care Information Technology and Systems paper is shown separately with reduced marks in both notices.
How to Download the Official MDHM Time Table
Students should download the timetable only from Osmania University's official exam channels. The safest route is through the OU Exams notifications page.
- Open the official OU Exams website.
- Go to the examination time table or exam notifications section.
- Find the MDHM entries for May 2026.
- Select the correct scheme: old scheme or new scheme.
- Open the PDF and verify semester, exam type, batch and timing.
- Save a copy and keep a printed version for reference.
If a revised notice appears later, use only the latest document posted on the official site.
What to Verify Before the Exam
Downloading the timetable is only the first step. Students should confirm that the schedule actually matches their academic status.
- Correct scheme: old scheme or new scheme
- Correct semester
- Regular, backlog, or improvement status
- Batch year mentioned in the notice
- Paper title and date
- Session timing
- Marks pattern where relevant
If any paper seems missing or mismatched, contact the examination branch immediately. A wrong assumption about scheme or batch can lead to missing the actual exam date.
Hall Ticket, Changes and Result Updates
The timetable notice confirms the examination schedule, but it does not by itself confirm a separate hall ticket release date. Students should therefore keep checking the official OU Exams portal for hall ticket and exam-day instructions.
If Osmania University issues a correction, postponement or revised timetable, that later notice should be treated as final. Result dates were not confirmed in the timetable notices reviewed for this page, so students should follow only official university updates for post-exam announcements.
Until then, the practical approach is to keep copies of the timetable PDF, check the exam portal regularly, and verify all details again once the hall ticket becomes available.
