Admission to UG and PG Programmes under Foreign Student (FS) Category, 2026-2027

AUD invites applications to its programmes of study from citizens of countries other than India. AUD has a FS supernumerary admission quota (over and above the sum of seats of regular admission categories for Indian applicants) for its undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate programmes (PG).

  • The FS quota in UG and PG programmes is a percentage of the total of regular (non-supernumerary) Indian/domestic study seats. The FS UG and PG seats available in 2026-2027 in the various programmes are shown in Tables 1 and 2 in this brochure.
  • FS applicants must register and apply at the Study in India (SII) portal of the Government of India. [https://www.studyinindia.gov.in ]
  • Alongwith the SII registration and application, it is mandatory to also apply through the AUD FS admissions portal and pay the designated application fee there. [https://aud.delhi.gov.in/admission/ForeignStudent/2026 ]
  • Admission of FS is for full-time study in an approved programme with intention of completing an AUD degree.
  • FS admission is considered to be ‘in absentia’, whether or not the FS applicant is in India at the time of application.
  • No applicant under the FS category may be considered for admission under another category or quota, and no applicant under any domestic admission category (regular or supernumerary) is eligible for FS admission.
  • The FS admission process differs from domestic student admission and has a different set of steps and procedures in place governed by the Government’s and AUD policies.
  • Minimum eligibility requirements (including qualifying degrees and percentage/CGPA, etc.) for FS applicants are the same as (or equivalent to) those for Indian applicants of the general/unreserved admission category. The minimum eligibility requirements for each programme are mentioned in the general Admission Brochure available on the UG and PG admissions pages of the website. National entrance tests (like CUET) for determining merit of domestic applicants do not apply to FS applicants. However, some additional criteria (such as an entrance interview, statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, etc.) may be mandatory for FS. These criteria are specified in this brochure under Programme-Specific Application Instructions.
  • Foreign applicants will not be exempted from any of these above stated requirements on account of their remote location. These requirements will be completed virtually without the applicant needing to be present in-person in India.
  • Self-financing FS applicants are those who do not receive financial assistance as part of an official government/cultural/educational exchange programme recognized by the Indian government. Selffinancing FS applicants pay the AUD application/FS processing fees and the tuition fees indicated in Table 3 in this brochure.
  • Financed/sponsored FS applicants are those who apply for admission to AUD as per the norms of the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (Cultural Exchange Fellowship programme), EdCIL or another governmentto-government scholarship programme. Their tuition payments to AUD are set by terms of their scholarship, as recognized by the university.
  • FS applicants should carefully read the general Admission Brochure of the University available on the UG and PG admissions pages of the website describing the minimum eligibility requirements, and other details about the programme they seek admission to and then follow the Programme-Specific Application Instructions given in this brochure for FS admission.
  • Important web-links have been provided at the end of this brochure.

Admission Process
  • All FS applying to the various programmes at Dr. B. R. Ambedkar University Delhi must register on the Study in India (SII) portal, Government of India. (https://studyinindia.gov.in/how-to-apply-to-studyin-india-?activeTabIndex=0 ). It is mandatory to also apply through the AUD admissions portal (https://aud.delhi.gov.in/admission/ForeignStudent/2026 ).
  • FS applicants with complete and valid online applications will be contacted in due course about subsequent application steps. Those selected for admission are offered provisional admission upon verification of the documents provided during the admission process.
  • A provisionally admitted FS candidate will be issued documents by AUD to enable them to obtain a student visa (or, for Ph.D. scholars, research visa). No provisionally admitted foreign student will be registered at AUD without a valid visa (Student or Research) unless they are in possession of such a document as OCI card that conveys the right to stay in the country and register in an Indian educational institution.
    (For information about visa requirements, please visit https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/index.html )
  • FS candidates should await the official AUD admission ‘offer letter’ (with provisional registration number and other information) before applying for visas.
  • Additional requirements for registration:
    • proof of suitable medical insurance, with ‘evacuation’ clause, for the FS as well as any dependent family members who stay with the FS in India;
    • banking details showing ownership or co-ownership of a bank account in India with funds sufficient to cover at least the first year of AUD tuition and living expenses in Delhi; and
    • evidence of personal and/or family financial resources sufficient to cover the student’s expenses of the whole intended period of study. [Point (iii) can be waived for government sponsored/ financed FS candidates as defined in this brochure’s General Information Section A].
  • The annual tuition fee (see Table 3 ) is paid at the time of admission and thereafter at the beginning of the academic session each year. The payment must be in Indian Rupees (INR) and through electronic bank transfer. Please check the exchange rate on date of payment on https://www.rbi.org.in and pay the equivalent amount accordingly.
  • International Affairs Division (IAD) of AUD is the administrative unit directly concerned with admission of foreign students. Once admitted, foreign students are assisted and advised by programme staff of their School and by the AUD Student Services. IAD assists FS with matters such as general orientation towards the University, registration at the Foreigners Regional Registration Office, and other admissions related advice.
  • AUD does not currently have a foreign students hostel.
