Students interested in taking the test can register at official website.

The deadline to apply is April 14th.

Approximately 3,000 seats would be available in fully financed Central Government schools for students in grades 9 and 11. The admission exam will take place on May 7. The test will be held in all 50 states as well as the Union Territories. Students in grades 8 and 10 who belong to the SC category will be allowed to apply for the test.

The candidate's parent's annual income must be less than Rs 2.5 lakh to be eligible for registration.                      

According to a CBSE statement made earlier, the plan entails the direct delivery of scholarships to the schools admitting the shortlisted pupils.

The CBSE also stated that the scholarship covers school fees (including tuition fees and other expenses) as well as hostel fees (including Mess Charges etc.).

Only independent residential schools connected with the CBSE up to Class 12 are eligible for the scheme. It said that schools must have been open for at least 5 years and have a pass rate of at least 75% in Class 10 and 12 in the previous three years.
