Late Fee Phase Continues for WBUHS Nursing Registrations After Deadline Extension
WBUHS has moved into the late fee phase for B.Sc Nursing 2025-26 registration. Students must pay a penalty starting March 26 to secure their enrollment.

The West Bengal University of Health Sciences (WBUHS) has officially transitioned into the late fee registration phase for the B.Sc Nursing 2025-26 academic batch. This follows the conclusion of the regular registration window, which was extended until March 25, 2026. As of today, March 26, 2026, the university portal has activated the first tier of the structured late fee schedule. This registration is a mandatory administrative requirement for all students already admitted to nursing colleges affiliated with WBUHS to ensure their eligibility for upcoming university examinations.
The university has implemented this multi-stage fee structure to ensure all student data is finalized before the 2026 examination cycle. According to the official notification, the registration portal at wbuhs.ac.in will remain open with varying penalty amounts until late May. Candidates who miss these windows will not be issued a registration number, which is essential for professional recognition by the Indian Nursing Council (INC) and the West Bengal Nursing Council.
WBUHS Nursing Registration 2026: Late Fee Structure
To maintain the academic calendar, the university has divided the remaining registration period into two distinct penalty phases. Students are encouraged to complete the process early to avoid the higher fee slab in the final month.
| Registration Phase | Basic Fee | Late Fee | Total Amount |
| Up to March 25, 2026 | ₹2,500 | Nil | ₹2,500 |
| March 26 – April 20, 2026 | ₹2,500 | ₹500 | ₹3,000 |
| April 21 – May 20, 2026 | ₹2,500 | ₹2,500 | ₹5,000 |
| College Verification Deadline | N/A | N/A | May 21, 2026 |
Mandatory Guidelines for Candidate Enrollment
The university has issued strict instructions for both students and affiliated institutions to ensure the integrity of the data provided. The mere payment of the registration or late fee does not guarantee the issuance of a registration number. The process is only complete once the university verifies all uploaded documents.
- Document Verification: Students must upload scanned copies of their original Class 10 and 12 mark sheets, allotment letters, and valid photo identification.
- Institutional Responsibility: Affiliated nursing colleges have been given a final deadline of May 21, 2026, to verify the data of their newly admitted students within the university system.
- Forfeiture Clause: Any discrepancy or falsification discovered during the verification process will lead to the immediate rejection of the application and the forfeiture of all fees paid.
Upcoming Nursing Entrance Exams in West Bengal
While the current registration is for students already enrolled in the 2025-26 batch, the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) has simultaneously opened applications for the next academic cycle (2026-27). Fresh aspirants seeking admission into B.Sc Nursing and various paramedical courses can now apply for the JENPAS UG 2026 entrance exam.
The registration for JENPAS UG 2026 started on March 24 and will continue until April 15, 2026. This entrance test is scheduled for June 7, 2026. Additionally, the application process for Post Basic B.Sc Nursing (JEPBN 2026) and M.Sc Nursing (JEMScN 2026) is tentatively set to begin on April 1, 2026. Students are advised to use the official WBJEEB portal at wbjeeb.nic.in for all entrance-related submissions.
Conclusion
The activation of the late fee phase on March 26 serves as a final reminder for nursing students under WBUHS to secure their professional registration. With the total cost set to double after April 20, immediate action is required to avoid unnecessary financial burdens. As the university prepares to close the portal permanently on May 20, both students and colleges must prioritize the completion of document uploads and internal verifications. Staying updated with the WBUHS official notice section is essential to ensure that the 2025-26 enrollment records are accurately reflected before the upcoming June university sessions.
