CBSE registration, Class 9 and 11 — what parents check before the school submits
Nothing missing before you go.
Tick what you have and see at once what is missing.
Short answer. You do not register your child yourself: the school does it on the Pariksha Sangam link on the CBSE website. CBSE asks schools to fill in the full names of the student and parents without abbreviations and to verify the name and date of birth with parents. So check the details now.

What does not exist
Be careful with anyone who offers this.
- “We can register your child directly with CBSE”: The circular is addressed to schools: they submit the registration data on Pariksha Sangam.
- “A nickname or initials are fine”: CBSE asks schools to avoid abbreviations in names.
- “Any school can send a student for the board exam”: The bye-laws quoted in the circular bar candidates not on the school's rolls.

Questions
Can parents register a student for CBSE?
No. The school submits the registration data on the Pariksha Sangam link.

The circular says schools give it to students to keep for the later List of Candidates.
