  • Yes, you are eligible for the NSET exam in 2024. There is no upper age limit for appearing in the NEST exam. NEST eligibility for appearing in the Integrated M.Sc.program at NISER/CEBS is based on your date of birth and educational qualification.

    Educational Qualification: You must have passed the 12th Standard examination or equivalent from a recognised board in India in 2022, 2023, or will be appearing for it in 2024.

    Yes you are eligible provided you have passed your Class 12th either on 2023 or 2022.

  • Applicants who want to appear in the NEST 2024 exam. The General and OBC category candidates born on or after August 01, 2004, are eligible for admission to the Integrated MSc programmes of NISER/CEBS. The age limit is relaxed by 5 years for SC / ST / Divyangjan candidates.

Allotment of seats in LPU NEST-wise counseling will depend on the merit rank of candidates, their eligibility, and the online filling of course and specialisation preferences. The procedure consists of download rank card, filling of preferences for seats, and finally, seat allotment. Seat allotment is done as per the availability and preferences. Candidates will have to confirm the allotted seat after payment of a nominal fee and submission of required documents. The earlier a student is in applying, the better his chances of ending with a favourable seat and scholarship.

hi,

Seats during LPU NEST counselling are allocated based on the candidate's rank, choices filled, and seat availability. After qualifying the exam, candidates must register for counselling, fill in their preferred courses and specializations, and lock their choices. Allocation is done in order of merit—higher-ranked candidates get priority. If the preferred seat is unavailable, the system allots the next best option. Once a seat is allotted, candidates must confirm admission by paying the initial fee within the given deadline. Failure to do so may result in losing the seat, and it gets offered in subsequent counselling rounds.
