National Service Scheme - NSS
The NSS unit of Elphinstone College undertakes different projects such as blood collection campaigns, awareness camps, etc. Currently, an enquiry counter has been set up to assist students for F.Y.J.C. Admissions.
Students who join the National Services Scheme (NSS) or N.C.C. will get the benefit of 10 additional marks. In case such students fall in a subject, they will be given not more than five marks to enable them to pass in the subject, or for the award of a class or distinction. Under no circumstances will they be entitled to more than ten additional marks. These marks will be given provided the student completes 120 hours in NSS or has satisfactorily completed his NCC training.
Some of the activities carried out by the NSS unit are:
