What Candidates Should Know

The Round 3 counselling provides another opportunity for eligible candidates seeking admission to PGIMER's B.Sc. Nursing programmes. However, candidates should carefully check the category-wise percentile requirement and ensure that all original documents are available before reporting.

Since PGIMER has indicated that additional vacancies may arise before counselling, the final number of seats available could change. Candidates meeting the prescribed eligibility criteria should therefore attend the counselling as instructed and follow the institute's admission and fee-payment requirements.
