Hello

For admission to Sainik School (Class 6) in 2025 , the eligibility criteria are:

1. Age Criteria :

The student must be between 10 and 12 years of age as of 31 March 2025 .

This means the date of birth should be between 1 April 2013 and 31 March 2015.

Your son’s date of birth is 20 May 2015 , which makes him ineligible because he will not meet the age cutoff .

2. Educational Criteria :

The student must be studying in or have passed 5th standard at the time of application .

Since the age criterion is not met , he cannot apply for the Sainik School entrance exam for Class 6 in 2025 .

The eligibility for the Sainik School entrance exam depends on the candidate's age as of March 31 of the admission year. For admission to class 6, the student should be between 10 and 12 years old. Since your son was born on 20/05/2015, he will be nine years and ten months by March 31, 2025, making him eligible for the entrance exam in the academic year 2025–26. Confirm with the official notification for specific year criteria.
