The Bihar School Examination Board has announced an extension of the admission deadline for Class 11 admissions under the Online Facilitation System for Students (OFSS) for the 2026-28 academic session. According to the revised schedule, students who were allotted seats through the first merit list can now complete their admission process until May 18, 2026.
Revised Timeline
Earlier, the admission window was open from May 5 to May 12. The board stated that the extension has been provided for students who were unable to complete the admission formalities within the initial timeline. However, officials have clarified that this will be the final opportunity for candidates to secure their allotted seats.
Important Instructions for Schools and Colleges
The board has communicated that all schools and colleges should continue uploading admission-related information on the OFSS portal. Specifically, schools and colleges must upload admissions completed on May 14 by May 15, and admissions done on May 18 by May 19. According to the latest notice, the entire online data entry and verification process related to Class 11 admissions must be completed by May 19, 2026.
Consequences of Missing the Deadline
BSEB has warned that candidates who fail to complete the admission process within the extended deadline will lose their allotted seats. Such vacant seats will later be filled through the second merit list.

- Class 10 marksheet
