NBHM Eligibility
Eligibility
The 2026 NBHM advertisement defined eligibility for writing the test separately from eligibility to receive a scholarship.
- Candidates currently enrolled or intending to enrol by September 2027 in a qualifying PhD programme could write the test.
- Candidates currently enrolled or intending to enrol by August 2026 in a qualifying Master's programme could write the test.
- Candidates intending to enrol during academic year 2026–27 in a programme that uses NBHM test scores for admission could write the test.
- Foreign nationals could write the test, although NBHM scholarships were restricted to Indian nationals.
A qualifying programme was defined in the 2026 advertisement as a recognised full-time programme offered by an accredited university or institution in India whose degree name contains at least one of “Mathematics”, “Statistics” or “Mathematical Science(s)”, subject to NBHM's right to determine qualifying programmes.
