FAQ
Nursing admission questions, answered
Dev Nandini College of Nursing answers the most common questions about B.Sc Nursing and GNM admission, eligibility, hostel, approvals and fees for the 2026 session at its Hapur, Uttar Pradesh campus.
Courses
What nursing courses does Dev Nandini College of Nursing offer?
Two: B.Sc Nursing, a four-year degree, and GNM (General Nursing and Midwifery), a three-year diploma. Both are taught at our Hapur campus in Uttar Pradesh.
What is the difference between B.Sc Nursing and GNM?
B.Sc Nursing is a four-year degree needing 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology; it leads directly to M.Sc Nursing and senior clinical roles. GNM is a three-year diploma focused on practice, with a post-basic B.Sc route afterwards.
Which should I choose?
If you have PCB at 10+2 and want the widest long-term options, choose B.Sc Nursing. If you want to qualify and start working sooner, GNM is the shorter route.
Eligibility & admission
What is the eligibility for B.Sc Nursing?
Passed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, Biology and English, meeting the minimum age under council norms, and medically fit for clinical duty.
What is the eligibility for GNM?
Passed 10+2 as per council norms with English, meeting the minimum age requirement and medically fit for clinical duty.
Can I do B.Sc Nursing without Biology?
No. Biology at 10+2, with Physics and Chemistry, is required for B.Sc Nursing.
Do you admit students from outside Uttar Pradesh?
