For the 2027 admission cycle, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti has introduced a revised district-based admission policy.
Under the new guidelines, candidates can apply only for the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya located in their home district. However, students studying in a neighboring district may also be considered if their school is situated within 10 km (aerial distance) from their place of residence.
NVS will verify these details during the admission process. If an application is submitted for an incorrect district, it may be cancelled even after provisional selection.
The JNVST 2027 for Class 6 will be conducted in offline mode using an OMR answer sheet. The question paper will include objective-type questions from Mental Ability, Environmental Studies, Arithmetic, and Language.

There will be no negative marking for incorrect responses.
Candidates must obtain the minimum qualifying marks in each section as prescribed by NVS.
Answers should be marked only with a blue or black ballpoint pen on the OMR sheet.
The use of pencils is not permitted during the examination.
Candidates should carefully verify that the question booklet number and OMR sheet number are identical before starting the examination.
