Nursery admissions in Mumbai

Nursery admissions in Mumbai usually have the tightest competition because intake is small and demand is concentrated at the entry grade. Families should register at two or three preferred schools the day the window opens — first-come-first-served is a real factor at popular campuses.

Age cut-offs and points

Confirm the age cut-off for Nursery at each shortlisted school; even within the same board, schools occasionally vary the cut-off by a month or two. Many schools use a points-based shortlist at entry grades — sibling, alumni, distance and gender categories carry weight, and the points calculator on each school page estimates where your child stands.

What to prepare

Have the birth certificate, residence proof, parent ID and recent child photographs assembled before applying. Schedule a campus visit before the form deadline; the visit usually surfaces fit signals that the brochure never will.
