Hi there! I'm a junior looking at options for university in India, and I'm wondering if anyone can suggest which schools are considered the 'easiest' to get into? I know it's all pretty subjective, but any advice or pointers would be great to help start my search.
While the term 'easiest' can indeed be subjective and depends on the specific course of study, some universities in India have less competitive barriers to entry than others. Here are a few, but remember that you should still check the specific admission requirements for your chosen course:
- Lovely Professional University (LPU) is known for its diverse course offerings and innovative teaching methods. LPU admits students based on board exam results and its own entrance test called LPUNEST.
- Symbiosis International University accepts students across a variety of disciplines based on the Symbiosis National Aptitude (SNAP) test. Some of the university's programs have less vigorous admission competition.
- Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) is one of the largest universities in the world and offers a wide range of educational and vocational programs at all levels. Since it is an open university, many of their programs have more relaxed admission criteria.
- Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) caters more specifically to students who want to study in Urdu medium, but they have a wide range of course offerings and comparatively more comfortable admission norms.
These universities have more inclusive enrollment policies, but I encourage you to research and explore a variety of universities to find one that aligns with your academic interests and future career goals. Also, consider universities' employability rankings, which can give you a sense of the value of each institution's degree in the job market. Remember, the 'easiest' university to get into may not necessarily be the one that will suit your future goals and aspirations the best.
