Last November, a government school headmaster from Kolar called me with a simple question — “Which portal do I use for KSEEB school login? The circular says kseab but we only knew KSEEB.” This confusion is extremely common across Karnataka schools right now. Here is the thing — KSEEB was renamed KSEAB in October 2022. The portal changed too. But many teachers and headmasters (ಮುಖ್ಯ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕರು) are still searching for “KSEEB school login” — which is perfectly fine, both portals lead to the same place.

This guide explains both portals clearly, walks you through the login process, and covers everything from SSLC registration to NMMS to hall ticket download.
💡 Quick Answer: KSEEB is now KSEAB. For school login (ಶಾಲೆ ಲಾಗಿನ್): 👉 kseab.karnataka.gov.in For School Activity (SSLC exam work): 👉 kseeb.karnataka.gov.in/schoolLogin
KSEEB vs KSEAB — What Actually Changed?
This is the most important thing most guides skip entirely.
| KSEEB (Old) | KSEAB (New) | |
|---|---|---|
| Full Form | Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board | Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board |
| Changed When | Before October 2022 | October 2022 onwards |
| Portal | kseeb.karnataka.gov.in | kseab.karnataka.gov.in |
| Status | Redirects to KSEAB | ✅ Active official portal |
Bottom line: Same board, same functions — just a new name and updated portal. The old kseeb.karnataka.gov.in School Activity link still works but redirects to the KSEAB website.
⚡ Note: If any circular from the Department of Education (ಶಿಕ್ಷಣ ಇಲಾಖೆ) mentions kseab.karnataka.gov.in — that is the new official URL. Always use that.
KSEAB/KSEEB School Login — Step by Step
Karnataka school headmasters and teachers use this portal for all SSLC-related work throughout the year.
Step 1: Open the Official Portal
For School Activity (SSLC exam work): 👉 kseeb.karnataka.gov.in/schoolLogin/views/loginpage.aspx
Or directly from the KSEAB website: 👉 kseab.karnataka.gov.in
Step 2: Enter User ID and Password
- User ID: The unique school ID provided by the Department
- Password: Given to the school Headmaster (ಮುಖ್ಯ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕರು) by the Department
⚡ Who Gets Credentials? The school’s Headmaster receives login credentials from the Department of Education. New school or credentials not received? Contact your Block Education Officer (BEO) or DDPI office immediately.
Step 3: Fill in the Captcha
Type the captcha exactly as shown on screen.
Step 4: Click Login
Your school dashboard will open with all available school activities.
Step 5: What is on the Dashboard?
Once logged in, you will find:
- SSLC student registration
- Exam fee challan printing
- Hall ticket download
- Circulars and official notifications
- NMMS scholarship work
- Student data entry and updates
SSLC Student Registration — How to Do It from School Login {#sslc}
Every year, SSLC exam registration is done through the school login portal. This is the most critical task for any school headmaster.
2026 Timeline (for reference):
- Last date to upload student information: November 29, 2025
- Exam fee challan printing window: November 17–21, 2025
- Challan deposit at bank: By November 24, 2025
- SSLC Exam 1: March 18 to April 2, 2026
Registration Process:
Step 1: Login to the school portal
Step 2: Find “SSLC Registration” or “Student Registration” on the dashboard
Step 3: Enter each student’s details:
- Full name — exactly as per Aadhaar
- Date of Birth
- Category details
- Parent details
- Passport size photo upload
Step 4: Verify all details carefully — corrections later are a long process
Step 5: Print the Exam Fee Challan
Step 6: Deposit the challan at the bank and keep the receipt safe
⚠️ Critical: If a student’s name is entered incorrectly, the same wrong name appears on the hall ticket (ಪ್ರವೇಶ ಪತ್ರ) and eventually on the SSLC certificate (ಎಸ್ಎಸ್ಎಲ್ಸಿ ಪ್ರಮಾಣಪತ್ರ). Correction after that is a lengthy process. Double check every entry before submitting.
NMMS Scholarship — How Schools Apply Through the Portal
NMMS — National Means cum Merit Scholarship — is for meritorious Class 8 students. In Kannada, it is commonly referred to as ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಪ್ರತಿಭಾ ಹುಡುಕಾಟ ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆ.
The school login dashboard has an “NMMS” or “Scholarship” section.
What schools need to do for NMMS:
- Prepare the list of eligible students
- Upload student details on the portal
- Verify and submit documents
- Submit the application within the deadline
NMMS Eligibility Reminder:
- Minimum 55% marks in Class 7 (50% for SC/ST)
- Family income below ₹3.5 lakh per year
- Must be studying in a Government or Government-aided school
Hall Ticket Download — From School Login
Before every SSLC exam, schools must download hall tickets (ಹಾಜರಾತಿ ಚೀಟಿ / ಪ್ರವೇಶ ಪತ್ರ) and distribute them to students.
Step 1: Login to the school portal
Step 2: Go to “Hall Ticket Download” or “Admit Card” section
Step 3: Select the academic year and exam
Step 4: Enter username, password, and captcha — the portal uses double authentication for this step
Step 5: All student hall tickets download as a PDF
Step 6: Print and distribute to students before the exam date
⚡ Important: Hall tickets contain the student’s photo, roll number, exam centre, and schedule. Students must carry the hall ticket to the exam centre on every exam day — it is compulsory.
Common Login Errors and How to Fix Them
Error 1: “Invalid Credentials” — Login Not Working
Cause: Wrong User ID or password. Fix: Verify credentials with your BEO or DDPI office. First-time login? Use the initial credentials provided by the Department exactly as given.
Error 2: Portal Not Opening
Cause: Browser compatibility issue — this portal works best on Chrome. Fix:
- Use Chrome browser (recommended version 87 or above)
- Keep screen resolution between 1280×800 and 1920×1080
- Clear cache: Ctrl+Shift+Delete
Error 3: Student Data Not Uploading
Cause: Wrong file format or file size too large. Fix: Use only the file format specified on the portal. If photo is not uploading — compress the image size before trying again.
Error 4: Exam Fee Challan Not Printing
Cause: Browser popup blocker is active. Fix: Disable popup blocker in Chrome → Settings → Privacy → Popup and redirects → Allow for this site.
Error 5: Searching “KSEEB” But Getting No Relevant Page
Cause: The board was renamed in October 2022. Fix: Use kseab.karnataka.gov.in — this is the current official portal.
Marksheet Verification and Correction — Separate Portal
For marksheet-related work after the SSLC exam, there is a separate portal:
👉 kseeb.karnataka.gov.in/sslconline
Here you can access:
- Marksheet Verification Login
- Duplicate Marksheet Login
