Bangladesh’s Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) has announced that admissions for the 2025 academic year in both government and private secondary schools will again be conducted through a digital lottery system. Applications will be accepted online from November 21 to December 5, with the lottery scheduled for December 14. Teletalk, the state-owned mobile operator, will provide technical support for the online process. Head teachers will upload vacancy information between November 12 and 19, and admission notices will be published from November 13 to 19. Selected students can complete admission from December 17 to 21, while two waiting lists will be used between December 22 and 30. The Education Ministry has yet to issue the final admission policy, but the process follows the pandemic-era system introduced in 2021.
