Hello ,

For DELED entrance exams, the minimum age is usually 18 years as on 01-01-2026 (the cut-off date mentioned in the notification). Since you will turn 17 years on 24-03-2026 and not 18 on 01-01-2026, you are NOT eligible to apply for the DELED entrance exam in 2026. You will become eligible only in the next admission cycle, when you complete 18 years before or on the prescribed cut-off date

Yes you are eligible to apply for D.El.Ed 2026. You will complete 17 years of age on 24/03/2026, which Falls within the year 2026. As per the general eligibility criteria for D.El.Ed , a candidate must attained the minimum required age during the admission year ,not necessarily on 01/01/ 2026.
