First list of Delhi Nursery admission 2024 to be out on January 12: Check details

The release of the initial list of chosen applicants for Delhi's nursery, kindergarten (KG), and Class 1 admissions has been keenly awaited by parents and kids.

This important milestone in the competitive admissions process for the academic year 2024–2025 is scheduled for release on January 12.

A centralized online admissions procedure is being managed by the Department of Education (DoE) for the 25% of seats designated for the economically disadvantaged section (EWS).


The objective of this program is to guarantee an equitable and methodical admissions process, specifically for students hailing from disadvantaged families.

Process and criteria for selection:

A point system is used in the selection process to allocate particular marks to different criteria. The most weight is assigned to neighborhood proximity, indicating the significance of geographic location in the admissions process.

Since hand measurements may be off, most schools advise utilizing Google Maps to calculate distances accurately.

The selection process does not take the parents' financial situation, employment, or educational background into account.

Alumni ties and sibling relationships are additional requirements. A girl child, a firstborn, or a single parent may also get points at some schools.

Age limit for admission:

For nursery, 4 to under 5 years old, KG, and Class I, 5 to under 6 years old are the minimum entry ages.
