Hello dear student,

To register for the Maharashtra SSC (Secondary School Certificate) exam as a private candidate, you'll need to fill out Form No. 17 online . This form is specifically for students who are not currently enrolled in a regular school or junior college and wish to appear for the SSC exam.

Here are the steps to fill the form:

1. You can find the online application form on the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary & Higher Secondary Education's official website.
2. Access Form No. 17 and carefully fill in all the required details.
3. After completing the form, you'll need to print it out.
4. You'll also need to print the online fee receipt.
5. Along with the printed form and fee receipt, you'll need to submit relevant original documents to the school or junior college listed on your application.

Important tips:

• Make sure to apply online as no offline applications will be accepted.
• You will need documents like your school leaving certificate, passport photo, Aadhaar card, etc.
• Ensure you provide a valid mobile number and email address for communication.
• If you encounter any difficulties, contact the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary & Higher Secondary Education directly.

All the best,

Thank you!!
