BSc Nursing eligibility requires candidates to have completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English as core subjects. Most institutions mandate a minimum aggregate score of 45-50% in PCB subjects, though this varies. Additionally, candidates must be at least 17 years old at the time of admission, with some universities specifying an upper age limit (often 35 years). Most of the recognized colleges and universities demand that candidates appear for entrance exams like NEET or state or national-level nursing entrance tests.
Some institutions may seek additional eligibility criteria, including medical fitness and domicile requirements, in addition to other parameters, while procedures for admission may vary, with government colleges conducting centralized counseling based on merit or entrance exam scores. Some universities also consider SC/ST/OBC and economically weaker sections as per government policies. The four-year BSc nursing programme, affiliated with the INC, provides theoretical and practical skills essential for career pursuit in the field of health, hospitals, and community service.
