Can girls take admission in Sainik School in Class 9?

Yes. The AISSEE 2027 bulletin says admission for girls is open in Class 9, subject to availability of vacancies, and the age rules are the same as for boys. In practice, that means girls’ seats exist only where a school has room in Class 9 that year.

A Sainik School is a residential, English-medium CBSE school run by the Sainik Schools Society under the Ministry of Defence, set up to prepare children for the armed forces. Our complete guide to Sainik School admission for girls covers hostels, fees and campus life.

How many seats are there in Sainik School for Class 9 for girls in 2027?

The 33 Sainik Schools have 69 Class 9 seats for girls in 2027-28, out of 732 Class 9 seats in total. Approved new Sainik Schools add 383 girls’ seats. A seat matrix is a table that shows how many seats each school has, split by home state, other states and category.

Class and group	Seats in 33 Sainik Schools (2027-28)	Detailed guide
Class 9 girls	69	Class 9 girls seat matrix 2027

Class 6 girls	351	Class 6 girls seat matrix 2027
Class 6 boys	2,809	Class 6 boys seat matrix 2027

Why Class 9 girls’ seats are so few in Sainik Schools?

Most cadets join in Class 6 and stay till Class 12, so Class 9 seats open only when a school has room. The bulletin says Class 9 vacancies are based on the current strength of Class 12 and gaps in other classes. The fixed girls’ quota of 10 seats per school applies to Class 6; in Class 9, girls’ seats follow each school’s actual vacancies.

Source: AISSEE 2027 Information Bulletin, NTA, released 3 November 2026. Seats are tentative.

Chhingchhip (10) has the most Class 9 girls’ seats. Ambikapur, Goalpara, Mainpuri and Nalanda have 5 each, and Ghorakhal, Kapurthala, Kunjpura and Punglwa have 4 each.

Schools with no Class 9 seats for girls in 2027

These 12 Sainik Schools show 0 Class 9 girls’ seats for 2027-28:
Amaravathinagar, Bhubaneswar, Bijapur, Chittorgarh, Gopalganj, Imphal, Jhunjhunu, Kalikiri, Kodagu, Nagrota, Purulia, Sujanpur Tira. The bulletin still asks candidates to choose schools “irrespective of availability of vacancies” in a category, because seats that open later are shared out by the reservation rules.

How are Class 9 girls’ seats divided in Sainik Schools?

Girls’ seats follow the same split as all Sainik School seats: 67% for the school’s home state and 33% for other states, then SC, ST, OBC-NCL, Defence and General inside each list. Because the numbers are tiny, most schools show 0 or 1 seat in each category.

Domicile is the state your family officially belongs to, shown on your domicile certificate. Read more on reservation in Sainik School admission.

Category	Home-state girls’ seats	Other-state girls’ seats	Total Class 9 girls’ seats
SC	4	5	9
ST	4	4	8
OBC-NCL	10	7	17
Defence (wards of serving and ex-servicemen)	6	6	12
General	11	12	23
Total	35	34	69

Separate merit list for girls

NTA prepares the school-wise and category-wise merit list separately for boys and girls, and separately for Class 6 and Class 9.

Worked example: a Haryana girl in Class 9

Haryana has two Sainik Schools. Here are their Class 9 girls’ seats for 2027.

Category	Kunjpura: home state	Kunjpura: other states	Rewari: home state	Rewari: other states
SC	0	0	0	0
ST	0	0	0	0
OBC-NCL	1	1	0	0
Defence	0	0	0	0
General	1	1	2	0
Total	2	2	2	0

A General-category girl from Haryana has 3 home-state seats (1 at Kunjpura, 2 at Rewari). A Defence-category girl from Haryana has none right now in either school. She should still list both schools, because the bulletin says vacancies that open later are redistributed and she should add other-state seats and new Sainik Schools too.

Mentor’s Note For Class 9 girls, the new Sainik Schools are where most of the seats are this year. Parents often ignore them because they are less well known. Shortlist two or three new schools near you, check their fees and hostel on their websites, and include them in your choices alongside the 33 Sainik Schools.

New Sainik Schools with Class 9 seats for girls in 2027

19 approved new Sainik Schools list 383 Class 9 seats marked for girls in 2027-28 and 37 schools list girls’ or gender-neutral seats. That is more than five times the 69 girls’ seats in the 33 Sainik Schools. Samvid Gurukulam in Mathura takes girls only (36 seats).

New Sainik Schools are existing schools (run by states, trusts or private bodies) that the Ministry of Defence has approved to run a Sainik School section. In Class 9, only the 40 schools whose Sainik School section has completed Class 8 can admit, and only into seats left vacant from their earlier intake. Each school sets its own domicile and category rules.

These schools fill at least 40% of seats by AISSEE All India merit and up to 60% from students already studying there. Read our explainer on the 40 and 60 route in New Sainik Schools.

How does a Class 9 girls’ seat turn into admission?

Your daughter gets a seat through e-counselling, based on her rank among girls, her category, her home state and the schools you choose. Qualifying the exam is the first step; the allotment comes later. Here is the order of events.

1. Write AISSEE on 31 January 2027 and score at least 25% in each subject and 40% overall (no minimum for SC and ST in the 33 Sainik Schools).
2. NTA publishes the result and the merit lists, made separately for boys and girls and for Class 6 and Class 9.
3. Register again on the e-counselling portal (AISSAC) and fill your school choices. See our e-counselling guide.
4. Attend the medical exam if called. Check the medical standards early.
5. Carry the original documents, including proof that she has passed Class 8, for verification. Keep this documents checklist handy.

Please note The seat numbers on this page are from NTA’s “Tentative List of Vacancies”. For Class 9, the bulletin says vacancies depend on the current strength of Class 12 and on cadets who leave, so they can change. Always confirm on the official website: https://exams.nta.nic.in/sainik-school-society/

Common mistakes parents of girls make in Class 9

• Looking only at the 33 Sainik Schools. In 2027, new Sainik Schools have more than five times as many Class 9 girls’ seats.
• Dropping a school because it shows 0 in your category. The bulletin says to choose regardless, because vacancies can open later.
• Picking a boys-only new school. Three new schools have no Class 9 girls’ seats this year.
• Forgetting the Class 8 pass condition. Your daughter must have passed Class 8 by the time of admission.
• Treating the seat matrix as final. It is tentative. Recheck at e-counselling.

What to do next

1. Fill the AISSEE 2027 form before 2 December 2026. Use our online form 2027 guide.
2. Note your home-state school’s Class 9 seats in your category from the table above and list 6 to 10 backup schools.
3. Go through the Sainik School Class 9 syllabus and solve previous year question papers.
4. Practise on a real answer sheet with our free Sainik School OMR sheet PDF.
5. Take a weekly mock from the test series from December to January.
