How many NIOS centres Lucknow has
Each of the 37 listings is a different institution, so the count is not inflated by repeats. 37 listings take Class 10 and 34 take Class 12. None of them is ITI-linked, so every one is a school or college that can take a general student. Science is marked on 24 of the 37 listings (65%), well above the Uttar Pradesh figure of about 51%.
Medium and where the centres are
Addresses on the list point to Lucknow, Aliganj and Bakshi Ka Talab, across 20 PIN codes in all. Of the institutions, two are for girls only and one is for boys only, which is worth knowing before you shortlist. Hindi and English cover nearly everything, with Urdu on 3 listings.
Before you choose a centre in Lucknow
Remember that the exam centre is fixed by NIOS later and can differ from your study centre. A marksheet from the UP Board with one or two passed subjects is useful here, because NIOS can credit up to two of them. Roughly 46% have a renewal date that has not yet passed, so a quick check before applying is sensible. Forms, fees and document uploads all go through the NIOS portal, so a visit to the Regional Centre is rarely needed. When a student from Lucknow sends us a marksheet, we check the subject mix against NIOS group rules and your Transfer of Credit from your last marksheet, then file the form.
State-wide rules, fees and every district: NIOS admission in Uttar Pradesh. Block 2 admissions for 2026-27 run until 31 January 2027 without late fee. Exam centres: NIOS exam-centre page. Subjects: NIOS subjects. SWOT Academy is independent coaching in Pune and works with Lucknow students online: Basic ₹6,500 · Premium ₹11,000 · classroom ₹12,500 per subject per year · home tuition ₹750 an hour (Pune). NIOS fees are paid to NIOS.
