Students seeking admission to CBS have to appear for a National Entrance Screening Test (NEST) that is conducted at a large number of centres in India. NEST is a common screening test for both CBS and our sister organization, NISER, Bhubaneswar and Santiniketan. Selected students are called for counseling and admission to CBS. Provisional allotment of streams of integrated M.Sc. courses are made at the time of counseling and students are required to pay fees and other charges in full amount at the time of admission.
