Hello,

The National Means-cum-Merit Scholarship (NMMS) application deadlines vary by state, with the overall national application period for Class 8 students in 2025-26 closing on August 31, 2025, but some state deadlines have been extended or are ongoing, such as West Bengal (September 16, 2025) and Andhra Pradesh (September 30, 2025). So, you need to check your specific state's Directrotate of Education for the correct application date, as different states have different deadlines for the 2025-26 application cycle.

I hope it will clear your query!!
