The university has devised five brochures this year, for making admissions to its various undergraduate and postgraduate academic programmes: Admission Brochure – I (Professional Programmes); Admission Brochure – II (Engineering & B.Arch. Programmes); Admission Brochure – III (MBBS Programme), Admission Brochure – IV (PG Medical programmes) and Admission Brochure – V (Super Speciality Medical Course).

Admission to about 70 academic programmes will be made through 35 Common Entrance Test (CET) this year, for about 15,000 seats.

GGSIPU is planning to conduct the CETs for four of its most sought-after courses MBA, MBBS, B.Tech. and MCA, at 10 cities across India, including Delhi, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Bhopal, Noida, Jalandhar and Nagpur.

For rest of the courses, the entrance exams will be held only in Delhi. The CETs of MBBS and PG medical courses will be of three hours duration whereas; the CETs of all other courses will be of two-and-a-half hour’s duration.

The admission brochure-cum-application form of GGSIPU can be obtained from 55 designated branches of Punjab & Sind Bank, spread all across country.

The university is providing the facility of online submission of application form for CET-2010. The application form along with CET fee can be submitted throughthe university’s website.

The last date for submission of filled-in applications for most of the programmes is April 21, 2010, except super speciality medical courses and postgraduate medical degree/ diploma programmes, for which it is June 8, 2010, and March 26, 2010, respectively.
