The wait is over. AIIMS has officially declared the MSc Nursing Result 2026 at aiimsexams.ac.in, and the numbers are significant — 2,304 candidates have provisionally qualified for the August 2026 session. If you appeared for the entrance exam on June 20, 2026, this is the moment you have been waiting for. Log in to the candidate portal, pull up your scorecard, and read every detail carefully before counselling begins.
This article walks you through what the result means, how to download your scorecard, what tie-breaking rules were applied, and what you absolutely must do next.
What the Result Notification Says
The result has been released under Result Notification No. 207/2026. According to the official notice, the list of provisionally qualified candidates is based entirely on performance in the entrance examination held on June 20, 2026. The qualification is provisional — candidature remains subject to verification of eligibility criteria and original documents at the time of admission.
Two things stand out in the notification worth paying attention to.
First, all reservation claims will undergo scrutiny. If your category certificate has any discrepancy — date of issue, issuing authority, or mismatch with the application form — your seat can be cancelled even after admission. Get those documents in order now, not during counselling.
Second, the tie-breaking criteria: if two candidates secured identical marks, the one with fewer negative marks gets the higher rank. If the tie persists even then, the older candidate is ranked higher. These rules matter only at the margins, but if your rank is in a competitive zone, understanding where you stand among tied candidates could influence which AIIMS campus you target.
How to Download Your AIIMS MSc Nursing 2026 Scorecard
The scorecard is available through the AIIMS candidate portal — not as a public PDF you can Google. You need your login credentials.
Step 1: Go to the official AIIMS examination portal at aiimsexams.ac.in
Step 2: Click on the MyPage login section
Step 3: Enter your Registration ID, Password, and the Captcha
Step 4: Your result and individual marks will appear on the dashboard
Step 5: Download the scorecard as a PDF and save at least two backup copies — one on cloud, one printed — before counselling begins

If you have forgotten your password, the portal has a reset option via your registered mobile number or email. Do not call any third-party helplines that claim to assist with result access — AIIMS never asks for payment to release results, and no unofficial number has access to the portal.
Cross-check every field on the downloaded scorecard against your admit card. Name spelling, date of birth, category — even minor mismatches can become problems during document verification. Report any discrepancy to the AIIMS exam cell through official channels before the counselling window opens.
What Your Scorecard Contains
The AIIMS MSc Nursing 2026 scorecard mentions your roll number, candidate category, percentile score, and overall rank. These four pieces of information collectively determine your standing in the merit list and, by extension, your realistic chances across participating AIIMS institutes.
Your percentile tells you where you sit relative to everyone who qualified. Your rank places you within a queue for seat allocation. Together, they define which AIIMS campuses are genuinely within reach in Round 1 versus which you should treat as a second-round fallback.
Understanding the Competition: 2,304 Qualified vs Available Seats
This is the number that actually matters for planning your counselling strategy. In 2025, 1,492 candidates qualified from the entire pool. This year’s figure of 2,304 is a jump — and it has direct implications.
More qualified candidates does not mean more seats. Seats across participating AIIMS institutes remain roughly the same. The competition at every rank tier gets sharper, and candidates who qualified by the thinnest possible margin need to be realistic about which campuses and specialisations are attainable.
The exam itself consisted of 90 MCQs to be answered in 90 minutes, with negative marking. The qualifying threshold is the 50th percentile — everyone on this list has crossed that bar. But the difference between a rank of 200 and a rank of 800 can mean the difference between AIIMS New Delhi and a newer campus in a less competitive specialisation.
The 17 AIIMS Institutes Where Seats Are Available
Online seat allocation covers all participating institutes. The campuses that have historically offered MSc Nursing seats include AIIMS New Delhi, AIIMS Rishikesh, AIIMS Bhopal, AIIMS Raipur, AIIMS Bhubaneswar, AIIMS Jodhpur, AIIMS Patna, AIIMS Gorakhpur, AIIMS Kalyani, AIIMS Deoghar, AIIMS Bibinagar, and AIIMS Mangalagiri, among others.
AIIMS New Delhi remains the most competitive allocation in virtually every specialisation. If your rank is strong, list it first with complete confidence. If your rank is moderate, research the specialisation-wise seat matrix carefully before locking your preferences — going for a less competitive specialisation at AIIMS Delhi might serve you better than a popular specialisation at a campus where seats are thin anyway.
What Happens Next: Counselling and Seat Allocation
The AIIMS MSc Nursing 2026 counselling process will be conducted in online mode. The detailed schedule — including choice filling dates, seat allocation rounds, and the open round — will be announced separately on aiimsexams.ac.in. No dates have been published yet with this result notification.
What you can expect, based on the established pattern, is a two-round online seat allocation followed by an open round conducted in physical mode. The open round is typically open to all candidates who scored at or above the 50th percentile, so even candidates who did not secure a seat in the first two rounds remain eligible.
Three things to do right now:
Bookmark aiimsexams.ac.in and check it every day. Counselling registration deadlines are frequently announced with short notice, and missing the window is the most avoidable way to lose a seat you qualified for.
Organise your original documents: BSc Nursing degree certificate, marks sheets, RN and RM registration certificate, category certificate if applicable, and your admit card. Document verification is mandatory; provisional qualification means nothing if the documents do not match.
Build your preference list in advance. Do not decide under pressure during choice filling. Research which AIIMS institutes offer your preferred specialisation, how many seats each campus has, and what ranks typically get allocated there based on previous years’ data.
