Hello,

National standard examination is not linked with any entrance or scholarship award. It is a voluntary examination. The one who is gold medalist in NSEP after completing his gradaution , may join directly to DAE through the interview without appearing in  the entrance exam. A number of scholarships ( maximum ten )  have been instituted to encourage the students to take physics as a career. Those who seek for the admission in Bsc  with physics after NSEP  are eligible  for these scholarships. NSEP is the primilary stage for the entry to international physics olympiad.
