Hello,

Institutions and boards have their own respective Class 9 admissions for the 2025-26 academic year. Applications for Sainik Schools are likely to open by the NTA in December 2024 and are expected to be closed on January 2025. JNVs have Lateral Entry Selection Test for Class 9, in which, registrations are made usually between October and the last week of November, and then the test is conducted in February.

Applications in private schools like Chavara Public School can be submitted up to March 31, 2025. CBSE, ICSE, and state boards are said to conduct admissions between January and March, in general.

The applicant should frequently check the website or contact the school authorities directly for specific dates, which can vary based on their policy. Early application increases chances of getting admission and meeting formalities within the stipulated date.
