What the NIOS list shows for Amritsar
The 26 listings belong to 17 institutions, because NIOS lists a centre once for each medium it teaches in. For Class 12 there are 15 listings to choose from; for Class 10, 26. Not one is an ITI. All 17 are schools or colleges open to ordinary NIOS learners. Science is offered on 5 of 26 listings (19%), against about 26% across Punjab.
Medium and where the centres are
Addresses on the list point to Amritsar, Jandiala Guru and Baba Bakala, across 9 PIN codes in all. Punjabi medium is available on 10 listings. The rest are Hindi and English.
What to check in Amritsar
Your file goes to the NIOS Regional Centre Chandigarh. Admission, fees and documents are all handled online, so most students never need to go there. The study centre and the exam centre are separate; NIOS publishes exam centres before each session. If your last result was from PSEB, keep the original marksheet ready; it decides what NIOS can credit. 22 of the 26 listings (85%) carry a current renewal date, above the Punjab figure of 62%. For Amritsar, the things we check first are whether a science seat is really available before you choose Physics, Chemistry or Biology, that the centre takes Class 12, not only Class 10 and a Punjabi-medium seat if you want one for Class 10.
