All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi has opened online applications for NORCET-11, the eleventh cycle of the Nursing Officer Common Eligibility Test conducted for AIIMS institutions across India. The notification, issued on 24 July 2026, calls for 2,218 Nursing Officer (Group B) vacancies across participating AIIMS campuses nationwide. Candidates with a B.Sc. (Hons.) Nursing, B.Sc. Nursing, Post-Basic B.Sc. Nursing, or a GNM diploma with at least two years of clinical experience in a hospital with 50 or more beds are eligible to apply, provided they hold valid registration with a State Nursing Council or the Indian Nursing Council. Applicants must be between 18 and 30 years old as on the last date of application, with standard age relaxation for reserved categories. Selection will follow a two-stage Computer-Based Test, followed by document verification and a medical examination.

Applications close on 13 August 2026, and candidates are advised to complete registration well ahead of the deadline given the high volume of applicants NORCET cycles typically attract.
