All the courses offered under the purview of Sri Ramachandra University are open to all the students irrespective of their sex, caste, religion or national origin. To be eligible to apply for the MBBS or BDS courses, students must have completed and passed the 10 + 2 examinations under CBSE/ ISC/ State Board syllabus with Physics, Chemistry and Biology (Botany-Zoology).

Candidates who are applying for admission under the NRI/Foreign student’s category should have successfully completed equivalent qualifications prescribed for the local candidates before they will be considered eligible for admission to these courses.

NRI/Foreign students must have completed the 12th grade and secured a pass before the date of starting the academic year.

All applicants must have taken courses in Biology, Physics and Chemistry in addition to English in the High School Years (during their 10th, 11th and 12th)

Although not a requirement students are encouraged to take Advanced Placement courses to strengthen their background in these subjects.

A grade point average of 3 (on a scale of 1 to 4) or a B- average in these core subjects is preferred.

Wherever alphabetical grades like A, B-, C+ are used by the school appropriate equivalence in terms of percentage like 90%, 75%, and 60% should be made available.

Only students from high schools accredited by the respective State or the country will be eligible for admission and a statement to this effect must be produced.

Non-resident Indian Students and Foreign students are exempted from taking the All India Entrance Examinations conducted by Sri Ramachandra University for admission. As students from countries other than India come from different backgrounds and from a wide range of countries graduating at different times each year, an examination for them becomes a difficult task. However the applications are carefully scrutinized to assess the relative merits of the candidates before being selected for admission.

If an NRI or Foreign student wants to take the entrance examinations he/she can seek the application for the same from the Registrar.

As the number of seats in this category is limited, parents and students are encouraged to contact the Registrar’s office at the earliest possibility. On the basis of the information provided in the format given, a process of screening will take place and the eligibility will be assessed. Once accepted to the course the candidate will be notified by e-mail/letter regarding the status.

As the first step the university expects all the prospective students to send their high school transcripts of 10th, 11th and 12th grades to the attention of the Registrar by mail or fax. The same can be sent as e-mail attachments also (Please do not send original documents at this stage). All original documents will be verified and accepted only at the time of admission. If the student is in the middle of 12th grade, the transcripts should include all the courses taken as of the date of sending the information. The final original transcripts and the High School Diploma have to be submitted on the day of admission.

If any additional information or reference letters are required at this stage the Registrar will contact the candidates through a letter or e-mail.

Starting the Fourth week of April each year, the process of sending provisional admission papers to the selected candidates will begin.

Those students who receive the letter of acceptance are expected to send the first Installment payment within 20 days of the date of notification.

The payment must be made as a Draft or Cashier’s Check drawn in favour of ‘The Registrar’, Sri Ramachandra University and sent to the attention of the Registrar by air-mail Speed-post. Unless this payment is received it will not be possible to hold the seat for the candidate beyond the specified time.

Candidates are expected to successfully complete their 12th grade and maintain their grade averages to gain confirmed admission. On the day of admission, a formal detailed application form filled in with particulars about local guardians, contact numbers if any etc. will have to be submitted along with passport size photographs and other necessary credentials for the office records.

On arrival at the college on the day of admission, all students will first report to the Deputy Registrar, Academic (Mr. A. Subramaniyan) who will help the new students with all these formalities and also assign the hostel accommodation. His office will assist the candidates in processing the clearance from the Health Department, Government of India and also the necessary papers required for student visa. His office is located in the ground floor of the main college building.

Adjoining his office is the office of Mr. A. Gerard, NRI/Foreign student’s coordinator who will provide the necessary help for the students and parents to settle down in the campus. Students who have the PIO cards, OCI cards (or) students multiple visas could seek his help in processing the resident permit requirement for all foreign passport holders whose stay in India is expected to exceed 180 days. The offices of the Registrar and the Dean are in the same block and parents and students can seek their help when needed.
