WBJEE JENPAS UG Counselling Guide 2026 – Nursing & Paramedical Admissions

A clear explainer on JENPAS UG — the separate WBJEE Board exam for B.Sc Nursing and paramedical courses.

What Is JENPAS UG? How Is It Different from WBJEE?

JENPAS UG stands for Joint Entrance Examination for Nursing and Paramedical Allied Sciences (Undergraduate). It is conducted by the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) exclusively for admission to B.Sc Nursing and paramedical/allied health science courses at institutions across West Bengal.

JENPAS UG should not be confused with the main WBJEE exam, which tests Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics for engineering, technology and pharmacy admissions. JENPAS UG has its own distinct syllabus, exam pattern, application timeline, merit list and counselling schedule — run as a fully separate process under the same board.

JENPAS UG 2026 Counselling Steps

  • Online registration for JENPAS UG counselling after the merit list is released
  • Choice filling of participating nursing/paramedical institutes in order of preference
  • Seat allotment based on JENPAS UG rank, category and seat matrix
  • Reporting at the allotted institute within the specified window
  • Document verification, fee payment and admission confirmation
  • Participation in subsequent rounds for upgradation or vacant-seat filling, if offered

For expected rank ranges by course and category, see our WBJEE JENPAS UG Cutoff 2026 page, and for a rank-based estimate of your chances, read our JENPAS UG college predictor guide.
