for the academic year 2009-2010.

Stage-2: Submit Application form to the desired constituent institutes of SIU.

Stage-3: Attend the call for further selection process of the chosen institutes.
• Each institute has its own method for arriving at a cutoff, depending on its focused field as mentioned in the prospectus of each constituent institute. For example, one Institute may have lower importance for Quantitative Section while some other Institute may have a higher importance for the same section.

• The institutes will announce a short list for attending further selection process.
• The individual institutes as per their schedules will announce admission results.
• For details of selection process and schedules please refer to the prospectus of respective institutes or contact the Institutes directly.
