CSS 2027 eligibility checker

01

Age limit and recognized relaxation

The standard age range is 21 to 30 on the cutoff date. Recognized categories can extend the upper limit, but evidence must support the claimed category.

Education and attempts

A recognized bachelor’s degree is the baseline qualification. A candidate can normally make up to three attempts; an appearance counts according to FPSC rules even when performance is incomplete.

03

Citizenship, domicile and documents

Nationality and domicile establish whether a candidate can apply and which quota context is relevant. Names, dates and domicile records should agree across supporting documents before submission.
