Is there an entrance exam for B.Sc Nursing, GNM and ANM in Gujarat?
No. GPNAMEC does not hold any entrance test. It ranks registered candidates on their Class 12 marks, publishes a state merit list and then fills seats through online choice filling and allotment rounds.
For science-stream courses such as B.Sc Nursing and BPT, merit is worked out on the Class 12 science subject marks named in the eligibility rules. The committee fills government seats in government, ESIC and municipal institutes and the government-quota seats of self-financed institutes.
MBBS and BDS seats in Gujarat go through a separate NEET-based committee; see Gujarat MBBS admission.
How does Round 4 of Gujarat nursing counselling 2026 work?
Round 4 is only for vacant seats in government institutes, and every candidate on the merit list may take part. Choice filling is open from 13 October till 10:00 AM on 16 October 2026.
- Read the official list of vacant government seats left after Round 3 reporting.
- Log in to the candidate portal with your User ID and PIN.
- Give the online consent for Round 4. All choices you filled up to Round 3 have been cancelled.
- Fill fresh choices in order of preference, only for courses and institutes you will actually join. Round 4 shows government B.Sc Nursing, BPT, GNM, ANM, BPO, BNYS and BASLP seats.
- Lock and save your choices before 10:00 AM on 16 October 2026, then watch the official website for the Round 4 allotment.
If you already confirmed a seat by paying the fee and reporting, you need not join Round 4. If you do give consent and get a new seat, the earlier admission is cancelled automatically; if no new seat is allotted, your confirmed admission stays. You can withdraw a consent given by mistake until choice filling closes.

How are seats divided in Gujarat nursing admission?
Most nursing seats are reserved for women. GPNAMEC applies these rules in 2026-27:
- B.Sc Nursing and GNM: 90% of seats for female and 10% for male candidates.
- ANM: all seats for female candidates.
- BPT, BOT, B.Optometry, BPO, BASLP and BNYS: open to all candidates equally.
- Category-wise merit lists cover General, SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, persons with disabilities and widow/orphan candidates.
- Management-quota seats that self-financed institutes surrender to the committee are shown separately at the government fee.
B.Sc Nursing is a 4-year degree, while GNM (3 years) and ANM (2 years) are diploma courses.
How is the Gujarat nursing merit list prepared?
GPNAMEC ranks all verified registrations on Class 12 marks and gives each candidate a merit number. For 2026-27 the provisional merit list came on 6 August 2026, with representations allowed till 11 August, and the final merit list on 25 August 2026.
- Lists are published as a general list, a User-ID-wise list and category lists (SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, disability, widow/orphan).
- Candidates with disabilities are verified by a medical board before they are placed on the list.
- Your merit number decides which seats you can get in each round.
What happens after a seat is allotted?
After an allotment you must pay the tuition fee and report at a help centre within the round’s window, or the seat is lost.
- Check the allotment list (merit-number-wise, User-ID-wise or institute-wise) on the official website.
- Pay the tuition fee online or at a listed Axis Bank branch by the deadline.
- Report at a help centre with your original certificates and a medical fitness certificate in the official format to confirm admission.
- Join the allotted institute as instructed.
To cancel a confirmed admission, go in person to the same help centre with the cancellation form, original admission order, fee challan copy, photo ID and your PIN. A cancelled admission is not restored. Seats in self-financed institutes still vacant after Round 3 were handed to the institutes to fill under Rule 17.
What is the Gujarat Nursing 2026-27 cut off?
