Before you apply: a safe checklist
- Phone the council office first and ask for the current forms, fees and working days.
- Keep your course certificate, marksheets, ID proof and photographs ready.
- Take a receipt for every fee you pay.
- Do not pay an agent who promises “guaranteed” or “fast” registration, and never share OTPs or passwords.
- Check a nursing college’s approval before admission. See our Hindi guide How to avoid fake colleges.
