PGIMS B.Sc. FAQs
Ques. Why is B.Sc. Nursing at PGIMS Rohtak restricted to female candidates only?
Ans. The government College of Nursing at PGIMS Rohtak admits only female candidates under the state nursing education policy, which has historically maintained gender-specific government nursing colleges. This restriction applies to government college seats only. Private nursing colleges affiliated to UHSR admit both genders. If you are a male candidate seeking B.Sc. Nursing in Haryana, apply to private affiliated colleges via the same UHSR CET merit list.
Ques. Can candidates from outside Haryana apply for PGIMS Rohtak B.Sc. programmes?
Ans. State-quota seats at PGIMS Rohtak require a valid Haryana domicile certificate, so candidates from other states cannot apply. There is no All-India quota for B.Sc. health science programmes at PGIMS Rohtak, unlike MBBS where an All-India quota exists. Candidates without Haryana domicile should apply to AIIMS, PGIMER Chandigarh, or JIPMER, where state domicile is not mandatory for B.Sc. admissions.
Ques. What stipend is paid during the mandatory internship year of B.Sc. Nursing at PGIMS?
Ans. B.Sc. Nursing graduates at PGIMS Rohtak complete a one-year mandatory paid internship after the four-year programme. The internship stipend is INR 1,000 to INR 1,300 per month as per UHSR norms. While lower than private hospital stipends, the internship at Pt. B.D. Sharma General Hospital provides exposure to a high patient load across trauma, oncology, and obstetrics with strong clinical mentoring from senior government faculty.
Ques. What government job channels are available for B.Sc. Nursing graduates from PGIMS Rohtak?
Ans. PGIMS Rohtak B.Sc. Nursing graduates can apply for HPSC staff nurse recruitment, ESIC nursing officer exams, and NORCET conducted by AIIMS for central government nursing officer posts. They can also appear for UP, Rajasthan, and Delhi state nursing exams without domicile restrictions. Government nurse starting salaries under pay matrix Level 7 range from INR 44,900 to INR 1,42,400 per month, with additional allowances for state-government posts.
Ques. How competitive is UHSR CET for a PGIMS Rohtak seat, and how should candidates prepare?
Ans. With 75 to 82 B.Sc. Nursing seats and thousands of Haryana domicile applicants, competition is very high. The effective cutoff typically falls in the top 3 to 5 percentile of all CET candidates for a PGIMS seat. The test covers 180 MCQs in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and English at Class 12 level in 3 hours. Biology carries the highest question count, so candidates should prioritise NCERT chapters on human physiology and ecology.
