Estimate Your NDA Attempts Window
NDA eligibility window is roughly from 16.5 to 19.5 years of age, with exact DOB ranges notified separately for NDA 1 and NDA 2.
There is no official cap on the number of NDA attempts, but with two exams per year and a narrow age window, most students practically get 4–6 attempts if they start on time.
Disclaimer: This NDA attempts helper is an explanatory tool based on the fact that UPSC has not fixed any numeric attempt limit for NDA; students can attempt as many times as they like while they remain within the 16.5–19.5 years age window and meet all other conditions. It does not replace the official NDA & NA notification or any special provisions introduced for specific years. Always rely on the latest UPSC NDA & NA notification and UPSC website for final decisions.
