About Guru Sankar Nanak College
Most colleges in Nagaon pitch themselves heavily to the sciences, but Guru Sankar Nanak College zeroes in on building a solid humanities and commerce foundation. It sits outside the intense rush of Guwahati, giving local students from Central Assam a space where they do not have to migrate just to get a reliable Gauhati University degree. The college runs the Srimanta Sankardev Regional Study Circle, which keeps the academic work closely tied to the cultural roots of the Kolong River basin.

Application Steps
Once the higher secondary results are out, the college tallies the incoming applications to draft a stream-wise merit list. This list, along with the corresponding cut-off marks for different majors, goes up on the main notice board and the online portal, sorting applicants strictly by their qualifying exam scores.
If your name appears in the selection bracket, you need to present your original marksheets and certificates for physical verification at the college administrative block. Clearing this step allows you to pay the admission fees online or via bank draft to lock in your enrollment before the specified deadline.
