After taking dinner borders return to the hostel for attending a one hour night preparatory class which starts at 08:45 pm, under the proper supervision of the teachers and hostel wardens. Borders take night milk at 09:45 pm. Lights Out is observed at 10:15 pm and at this time all the students must be in bed.

On Sunday, the borders follow a different time schedule in order to avoid monotonous life style. On this day the borders get up late and immediately after freshening up they go to the ground for physical exercises. From 11:30 am to 01:30 pm all the borders come back to the school premises to attend their compulsory hobby classes.

The entire day has been thoughtfully structured to ensure adequate study time, play time as well as meal time. Throughout their stay, the students are under the benevolent supervision of their teachers, mentors and hostel wardens.
