The number of to-be-unfilled vacancies comes as a shock to many as there will be a dearth of the workforce at the clerical level at 1679 posts until the public sector bank decides to reduce the total number of vacancies. It must also be noted that out of the 7954 qualified candidates, a reserve list/wait list will also be prepared wherein up to 50% of the vacancies (state-category wise) will be maintained.
The official notification of SBI Clerk 2018 reads, “Candidates will be released from this waitlist on a quarterly basis against non-joining and resignation out of the current batch only, subject to the candidates securing minimum qualifying marks as may be stipulated by the Bank for selection. This wait list will be valid for a period of one year from the date of declaration of final result.”

Yes, you should be allowed for the SBI Clerk exam as long as there are no spelling mistakes in your name. Minor variations in name order (surname first vs. name first) usually do not cause issues. However, to avoid any last-minute problems, carry additional identification proof (such as a PAN card or voter ID) and inform the exam authorities in advance if possible. It is also advisable to check the official guidelines or contact SBI’s helpline for confirmation. Arrive early to allow time for verification.

Hello Saurav,
It is unlikely to create a problem during the document verification (DV) process, as long as the university name on your certificates matches the details provided in your application form. However, since your college (ABC) is affiliated with XYZ University, it's important that the certificates or documents you present clearly show the relationship between the two.
To be on the safe side, you can:
Check your documents:
Ensure that the university name (XYZ) is correctly mentioned, and that it doesn't cause confusion with your college (ABC).
Include the affiliation information
: If possible, mention in your application or provide a separate document stating that your college is affiliated with XYZ University.
Clarify during DV (Document Verification): If any questions arise, you can clarify this during the document verification by showing the affiliation of your college with the university.
If the documents are genuine and correctly reflect your academic background, this minor discrepancy should not pose a major issue.
I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.
You usually need to put name of your college, or you can try middle way with "name of you college affiliated to University",
