B.Ed. students in Himachal Pradesh have a clear timetable for filling the remaining university seats. The Department of Education at H.P. University has announced an on‑spot, offline counselling session for the 2025‑2027 academic year. Candidates can expect the counselling to run on Thursday, October 8, and Friday, October 9, beginning at 11 a.m. at the College of Distance and Open Teaching (CDOT) in Summer Hill, Shimla.
The decision comes after the Vice‑Chancellor signed off on the session. The event will also cover admissions for the Government College of Teacher Education in Dharmashala and other self‑financed B.Ed. colleges linked to the university. The central committee coordinating the process will meet the candidates in person, helping them choose the best available seat under the Himachal Pradesh quota.
Who can join? All eligible applicants—those who scored at least 53 marks in the open category or 45 marks in reserved categories on the 2025 B.Ed. Entrance Test—can apply for the October 8‑9 counselling. To reserve a spot, candidates must visit the H.P. University admission portal from October 4 until midnight on October 7. The university also accepts applications during the counselling days for any remaining vacant seats, so it’s worth applying early.
