You’re at a big crossroads in your schooling. Jumping from SSC to HSC can feel thrilling but also a little scary. The college you choose will shape your future career, personal growth, and outlook. In Bangladesh, XI Class starts the HSC program for students aged 16 to 18, right after SSC exams. It’s a two-year program that prepares you for university or work. The Ministry of Education manages admissions based on merit to keep things fair. For the 2025-2026 session, applications open on July 30, 2025, at xiclassadmission.gov.bd.
Your list of preferred colleges matters a lot. You must select at least 5, and you can choose up to 10. This way, you can aim high but also have reliable backup options.
Seats are divided by groups: Science for STEM, Humanities for social sciences, and Business Studies for commerce. The list also shows shifts (Morning or Day), language options (Bangla or English), and the minimum GPA required. This helps you find colleges that match your SSC results.

Check the official list of colleges for XI admissions.

Look at the college’s reputation and HSC pass rates. Make sure the group fits your interests—Science for tech fans, Business for finance, and so on. Choose shifts and languages that suit your routine. Check for quotas, like those for freedom fighters’ children. Facilities matter—look for labs, libraries, hostels, and sports. Government colleges are usually more affordable, while private ones might offer extra features.

How to Check College Name and EIIN
Gather the details for your list. Double-check college names, EIIN, groups, shifts, versions, and available seats.
College names often hint at their location or reputation, like “Dhaka College.” EIIN is a 6-digit code from BANBEIS that identifies each college. If you enter the wrong EIIN, your application won’t go through.

Tips for Selecting Colleges for XI Admission
Use your research to choose colleges that fit you. Match them with your interests, skills, and GPA. If you’re strong in math, Science could work well. If you love history, pick Humanities. If you like accounting, choose Business Studies. Watch the GPA requirements—Science often needs at least 4.00.
Consider reputation, pass rates, and alumni success. City colleges often have better facilities, but rural ones may offer a quieter environment. Look for good labs, libraries, dorms, and activities like clubs or sports. Pick shifts and languages that fit your schedule. If you qualify for a quota, use it.
Plan your application: rank 5 to 10 colleges, with your favorites at the top. Read reviews and check their websites if you can. Apply early—the fee is Tk 220.
