• Candidates who have been already admitted in any of Sainik school (existing or newly approved).

• Candidates who were allotted a school out of their choice in Round-I but have not responded at all.

• Candidates who despite allotment of seats to them in first round, have given unwillingness for the same.

• Candidates who confirmed their willingness for the school allotted in the first round out of their choices but did not pay the requisite fees towards admission to the school in the 1st round of e-counselling.

In 2nd round of e-counselling, each qualified and willing candidate can give choice for maximum of three schools.

A school wise consolidated merit list will be prepared in the 2nd Round of counselling. Further, in view of approaching timelines for start of academic session after summer vacations, a reserved list of candidates will be prepared for three times the available seats for each of the 10 New Approved Sainik Schools to have enough willing candidates for the schools during second round of e- counseling.

Seven days’ time will be given to the candidates figuring in the consolidated list for completion of admission formalities after which remaining vacant seats, if any, will be offered to reserved list candidates as per their ranking in the merit list for a particular new school.
