Fee Details (Tentative for July 2025, based on recent patterns):
The fees can vary slightly depending on the specific category (compartment, reappear, additional subject) and whether it's a theory or practical subject. Late fees are also applicable if you miss the initial deadline.
For Class 10 (Matriculation):
- Compartment/Reappear Fee: Approximately INR 1350 per subject. This applies to students who failed in one or more subjects and are re-appearing.
- Additional Subject Fee: Approximately INR 350 per additional subject.
- Practical Subject Fee: An additional fee of INR 100 per practical subject might be applicable.
- General Examination Fee (if applicable for new private candidates): Around INR 800.
For Class 12 (Senior Secondary):
- Compartment/Reappear Fee: Similar to Class 10, expect a fee in the range of INR 1350 per subject for compartment/reappear exams.
- Additional Subject Fee: Around INR 350 per additional subject.
- Practical Subject Fee: An additional fee of INR 100 per practical subject might be applicable.
For Open School Candidates:
The fee structure for Open School is generally integrated with the compartment/reappear/additional subject categories. However, for fresh admissions to Open School for the 2025-26 academic session (which can also lead to July 2025 exams for certain blocks), the deadlines and fees might be different.
- Admission and Examination Fees: These must be deposited directly into the board's account through online payment.
- Late Fees: For open school admissions for the 2025-26 session, a late fee of ₹1,500 per candidate might be applicable if applying after the initial deadline (e.g., August 31, 2025, for the academic year admission).
Important Considerations:
- Late Fee: PSEB imposes significant late fees for applications submitted after the initial deadline. The late fee structure can vary (e.g., a standard late fee and a higher late fee for very late submissions). Always aim to apply within the initial window to avoid extra charges.
- Official Prospectus: For the most precise and comprehensive details on fees, eligibility criteria, and application procedures for each category, always download and review the official "Prospectus" released by PSEB for the July 2025 examinations. These are usually available on the
registration2024.pseb.ac.in/PrivateCandidate/Private_Candidate_Examination_Form
orregistration2025.pseb.ac.in/open
sections of their website. - Payment Mode: All fees are typically to be paid online directly into the PSEB's account. Be cautious of any third parties requesting payments.
- Regular vs. Private Candidates: The application process differs. Regular students usually apply through their schools, while private candidates apply directly online.
