85% Quota and Merit List for Class 11 Admission in Chandigarh's Government Schools
Class 11 Admission Common Merit List Released in Chandigarh
It's that time of year again, folks! Chandigarh's government schools have started the Class 11 admission process for the 2025-26 academic year. Here's the lowdown on the 85% quota & common merit list.
85% Quota for Government School Alumni
Did you complete your Class 10 from one of Chandigarh's government schools? If so, you're in luck! The Education Department is reserving a whopping 85% of the seats for students exactly like you. But, beware! This generous reserve means fewer seats for those coming from private schools, other states, or different education boards.
Common Merit List (CML)
The admission process involves a few simple steps. First, you'll need to register online (at www.chdeducation.gov.in) and pay a fee of ₹250. After that, keep your eyes peeled for the release of the provisional merit list, which is expected on June 12.
If you spot any discrepancies in the list, let ‘em know! You've got from June 12-13 to flag any issues. The final allotment list will be unveiled on June 20, and admission fee payment and document verification will follow suit. Don't worry; classes are slated to start on July 1.
Seat Distribution
The 42 senior secondary schools in Chandigarh have a whopping 13,875 seats up for grabs. Some 85% of these seats will be allocated to students from government schools, while the remaining 15% will go to students from private schools or other states.
A Word to the Wise
Remember, government school students have an advantage when it comes to securing a spot. So, if you've got your heart set on a particular stream, make sure to apply as soon as possible!
Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
