Admission Process Overview
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at Lok Jagruti Kendra University Ahmedabad follows a structured and transparent admission process designed to select meritorious candidates who demonstrate aptitude for healthcare education and service.
The university accepts applications through the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for admission into undergraduate medical programs, including B.Sc Nursing. Candidates must have qualified NEET with a minimum score as determined by the university's admission committee.
Step-by-Step Admission Process
- Application Submission: Interested candidates must register online on the official website of Lok Jagruti Kendra University Ahmedabad. The application form requires personal details, academic history, and uploading scanned copies of required documents.
- Document Verification: After submission, applicants must appear for document verification at the designated venue within the specified timeframe. Required documents include mark sheets, identity proof, caste certificate (if applicable), and NEET scorecard.
- Merit List Generation: Based on NEET scores and other criteria, a merit list is prepared for each category (General, OBC-NCL, SC, ST, EWS, PwD). The merit list considers both performance in NEET and qualifying examination percentages.
- Counseling Session: Shortlisted candidates are invited for online counseling sessions where they can choose their preferred seats based on available vacancies and preferences. The counseling process includes choice filling, seat allocation, and payment of fees.
- Seat Acceptance: Once a seat is allocated, candidates must confirm acceptance by paying the required fees within the stipulated time frame. Failure to do so results in automatic cancellation of the allocated seat.
