Sir I have done PUC science with 44.66%. Is it possible to do B.Sc nursing via distance learning from Indian College of Nursing?

<p>The eligibility criteria for <strong>B.Sc Nursing</strong> programs in India, including distance learning options, generally require:</p><p>1. <strong>Completion of 10+2 (PUC)</strong> with Science (Physics, Chemistry, and Biology) as core subjects.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>2. A minimum of <strong>45-50% aggregate marks</strong> in the qualifying exam.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>3. English as a subject in 10+2.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Unfortunately, with 44.66% marks, you may fall slightly short of the general eligibility requirement for B.Sc Nursing. However, you might still have options:</p><p>1. <strong>Relaxation for Reserved Categories:</strong> If you belong to SC/ST/OBC or other reserved categories, many institutions provide a <strong>5%relaxation</strong>, lowering the requirement to around 40-45%.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>2. <strong>Private or Distance Institutions:</strong> While traditional B.Sc Nursing requires in-person practical training (due to clinical practice mandates by the&nbsp;<strong>Indian Nursing Council</strong>), some private institutions might offer alternative options or bridge courses.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>3. <strong>Diploma in Nursing (GNM): </strong>If B.Sc Nursing isn't possible, you can opt for&nbsp;<strong>General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM),</strong> a diploma-level course requiring lower eligibility marks.</p><p>It’s best to directly contact the <strong>Indian College of Nursingor </strong>similar institutions to confirm whether they accept candidates with your percentage for distance or alternative programs.</p>
