Bangladesh Madrasah Education Board has extended the form submission deadline for the 2025 Dakhil Class Eight scholarship examination to November 13. The board issued a notice on Thursday announcing the revised schedule and detailed instructions for participating institutions.

Students of board-approved Dakhil, Alim, Fazil and Kamil madrasas may apply based on their Class Six registration records. The notice says that no more than 40 percent of eligible students from an institution can fill out forms to sit for the scholarship examination.

A provisional student list will be published on the board website on September 2. Online form submission is scheduled from September 2 to September 12, while the deadline for online payment of board fees is September 11. Each candidate must pay a Tk400 board fee online and a Tk200 centre fee to the relevant madrasa. Institutions must log into the Online Service-2 panel using their EIIN and password, select candidates, verify the temporary list, and print the final list within 24 hours of payment through Sonali Bank’s gateway.
