An ex-student is exempted from the attendance specified under rule 15.

An ex-student shall be entitled to receive a certificate with regard to his/her eligibility for admission to the examination and to have his/her application for admission thereto forwarded by the Head of the secondary/higher secondary school who recommended him/her for admission, whether or not he/she appeared at the examination in the year in which he/she was so recommended, provided that, the Head of the secondary/higher secondary school certifies that, to the best of his/her knowledge, the candidate is a fit person as regards character, for admission to the examination.
