Yes. GNM is open to 12th pass students of any stream who have passed English with at least 40% aggregate. Girls can also choose ANM.

Is there an entrance exam for B.Sc Nursing?

Yes. Every B.Sc Nursing applicant must qualify BUHSJET, the Bihar University of Health Sciences Joint Entrance Test. It has 100 multiple-choice questions (Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Aptitude and English, 20 each) in 2 hours, in English or Hindi, with no negative marking.

What is the minimum age?

You must be at least 17 years old on 31 December of the year of admission, for all three courses.

Can I apply while my 12th result is awaited?

Yes, you can apply and appear in the entrance. Your admission is confirmed only after you pass 12th with the required subjects and marks.

Yes. Relaxation in marks for SC/ST and other reserved categories applies as per INC and Government of Bihar rules for the session. Ask our Counselling Cell for the current figures.
