Class 6 or Class 9: which form do I fill?
Look at the date of birth. For Class 6 the child must be born between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2017, both days included. For Class 9 the range is 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2014.
A child born in 2014 therefore fits Class 9 only if the birthday falls on or before 31 March 2014. Born on 1 April 2014 or later, the child is outside both ranges. The bulletin counts age on 31 March 2027, so the date of birth decides the class, not the school grade alone.
Class 9 also needs a pass in Class 8 from a recognised school at the time of admission. For the approved New Sainik Schools, the child must be studying in that very school and be passed or appearing in Class 5 (for Class 6) or Class 8 (for Class 9) as on 31 March 2027. Read the New Sainik School paragraphs of the bulletin if your child is in one.

Source: AISSEE-2027 Information Bulletin, dates at a glance (2026). The late window carries a late fee of Rs 500. The fee is Rs 850 (General, wards of defence personnel and ex-servicemen, OBC-NCL) or Rs 700 (SC and ST), excluding bank and service charges, and it is non-refundable.
How to fill it, in three steps
- Register with a unique email and mobile number. Both are verified by OTP, and they cannot be changed after payment, so use your own or a parent's.
- Fill the form and upload the files. Note the application number the system gives you.
- Pay the fee by debit card, credit card, net banking or UPI. The form counts as submitted only when the Confirmation Page is generated.
All three steps can be done in one sitting or on different days. According to the bulletin, if no Confirmation Page is generated after payment, the transaction is cancelled and the amount refunded, and you have to pay again. Money leaving your account is not proof of fee payment.
If the upload or the form gets stuck
Two things the bulletin says get an application rejected: a missing or unclear photograph, and an unclear left thumb impression. So keep the photo within 10-200KB, and press the thumb once, flat, in blue ink on plain white paper before you scan it.
Capital letters are ruled out in one place: the signature must be in running handwriting, not capital letters. For the name fields, enter the candidate's, mother's and father's names as in the school records, as the bulletin asks. Date of birth goes in dd/mm/yyyy as in the birth certificate or school records.
No birth certificate on hand? The form asks for a date of birth certificate issued by the competent authority as a PDF upload, so get it before you start. For the scanning basics see how to scan a signature on a phone, and for the file-size side of the checks read pixels, DPI and KB.
Our earlier AISSEE guide covers the previous cycle. Use the 2027 bulletin figures above, not an old file.
Checklist before you pay

- Every certificate is a PDF between 50KB and 300KB.
- Four exam cities chosen; the bulletin says choices once made are not changed.

The bulletin says the application is not complete until the fee is paid. The money leaving your bank account is not proof. Wait for the Confirmation Page.
