Symbiosis International University

With its flagship campus in Pune, close to Mumbai, Symbiosis has been making waves for many years in the higher education space. The university operates several campuses in India all of which have garnered a positive reputation in the field of quality higher education. Symbiosis operates six campuses in Pune as well as campuses in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Noida, Nasik, Nagpur and Dubai. The university has a multi-step application process that varies slightly depending on the degree program in which you are interested.

Establish your Eligibility for your chosen Degree

Each degree program at SIU has specific eligibility criteria, such as academic qualifications and high school credentials. We will make sure you meet these before we apply for you. Our recommendations will be based on your academic record and the profile information you will provide us.

Entrance Examination

Most SIU degree programs require you to take an entrance exam. The Symbiosis Entrance Test (SET) is common for many undergraduate programs. Other exams for postgraduate management and law degree programs are also conducted. We will point you in the right direction when it is time to prepare for any of these entrance tests. Our trainers are standing by to coach you.

Online Application

Visit the official SIU website or the specific website of the Symbiosis campus in which you are interested. This will help you prepare your optional list of preferences. Conversely, we will build this list for you if you are unsure of where to study for your undergraduate or postgraduate degree. SIU's online application for admission is slightly complex, which is why our support will definitely count. Based on a questionnaire called the Preliminary Assessment Questionnaire or PAQ, which we will ask you to complete, we will process your online SIU application and share it with you for final validation. This process also includes the uploading of mark sheets, transcripts, ID, and degrees as applicable.

Program-Specific Requirements

Several degree programs at SIU, like other top Indian universities, have additional requirements such as a personal statement, essay, or portfolio. We will check the specific degree program details and address them for you. Many art and graphic design degrees at SIU, for instance, require you to submit a portfolio. Ask us and we will tell you how we can help you with portfolio submissions.

Final Selection and Admission

Based on your entrance exam scores and other factors such as academic record and program-specific requirements, SIU will shortlist you for consideration. Shortlisted applicants will be called for further interaction rounds, which will include a personal interview or group discussion.

Admission Confirmation

If you are selected, you will receive a formal offer of admission both through your SIU portal as well as through email. You will need to accept the offer and pay the admission fees, including accommodation charges, within the stipulated time frame to confirm your admission. Our team at Alphabet Education will assist you with the entire process from start to finish.
