To get admission to the 11th standard without your Class 10th NIOS result , contact the school you are interested in and explain your situation. Many institutions allow provisional admissions based on internal assessments, and previous academic performance, or conditional admissions are also done with the pending results. Ensure you submit the NIOS 10th result marksheet as soon as it is available to secure your admission.
