My son studied in India upto 8th standard post that we moved to US and he continued his studies further. He is currently in 10th grade and we are planning to finish his 11th as well. Is it possible to get an admission for 12th class under CBSE next year back in India?

Hello Mr. Kamlesh Ajamere,

Your son can get admission in 12th grade under the CBSE board in India, but there are conditions.  CBSE does not normally allow direct admission in to Class 12, as students are generally expected to complete both Class 11 and Class 12 with the same school which is affiliated to CBSE.  However there are exceptional circumstances like cases of transfer from outside the country that may be considered, given sufficient documentation is provided.

For the process of admission, you will need:

  1. Transfer Certificate from the current school.
  2. Mark sheets of Class 10 and Class 11.
  3. A good reason for the transfer/demonstration of returning to India, as CBSE does not facilitate admission for those who are only travelling to India for a short vacation.
  4. The new CBSE school will need to complete their admission process, however this school should be aware of the admission (and willing to accept the admission) and seek CBSE approval for the their admission to Class 12.

Please ensure you contact the CBSE school where you will accept admission into to your son and discuss the process with plenty of advanced notice.
