Selection Process
- Entrance Examination: Candidates are considered on the basis of their performance in the Bihar D.El.Ed entrance examination and fulfilment of eligibility conditions.
- Merit List and Seat Allotment: BSEB prepares the merit and cut-off lists using rank, category, institute preferences and seat availability. The allotted college is displayed through the candidate login.
- Document Verification and Admission: Shortlisted candidates must report to the allotted institution, submit the required documents, pay the applicable fee and obtain admission confirmation within the deadline.
Candidates who accept the allotted institution but want a higher preference may use the slide-up option, where available. They must first complete admission at the currently allotted institution. Exercising slide-up does not guarantee a new allotment, as an upgrade depends on merit, preferences and vacant seats.
