Can students submit their documents/ certificates later if they need
                                        time to get it from school?
        
                                    
                                 
                                Students can fill the form with certificates that are
                                    available. Later on, they can simply provide the remaining documents to the team as the
                                    application processes.
                                
                             
        
                            
                                
                                    Is it mandatory for students to submit their class XI marksheet?
                                    
        
                                    
                                 
                                Yes, it is. However, if they don’t have the Class XI
                                    marksheet, they can upload an
                                    application explaining the reason for its unavailability at the time of filling out the
                                    application and attach
                                    the PDF in place of the marksheet.

                                    that they have to take online from home.

                                The email will be sent once the video is
                                    evaluated and students are selected. Results can be expected to be announced anywhere
                                    between 15-30 days after the submission of the video. Find more details here. here.

                                We look into the profile holistically before selecting or rejecting a student. However, a score of 35 marks (out of a total of 45) is considered good.

                                    provide their JEE/IPMAT/SAT/CUET scores. The Scholarship (Aptitude) Test becomes optional
                                    for those who have provided their scores and they will be shortlisted on the basis of the
                                    score. Please note that the scholarship test is not just for students looking for
                                    scholarships but is also an essential step of our admission process which enables us to
                                    assess the analytical capabilities of the student.

                                    simulation round 3-4 days prior for preparation. In this round, they will be judged on their

                                At Masters’ Union we believe that financial constraints should not pose any hindrance to students’ academic aspirations. We have merit and need-based scholarships for all deserving candidates. Students scoring above 35 out of 45 marks in the Masters’ Union Scholarship Aptitude test get a scholarship which can range from 10% - 25% of the tuition fee depending on the student’s performance in the Scholarship (Aptitude)Test and the overall profile of the applicant. For candidates keen on scholarship, we encourage students to submit their application early to allow for our admission counsellors to thoroughly review their scholarship case before presenting it to the admissions committee at the time of evaluation.
                                
                             
        
                            
                                
                                    Is the scholarship for all four years or just for the first year?
                                    
        
                                    
                                 
                                Scholarship is awarded for all four years. If a student
                                    receives a 20% scholarship, they will receive a 20% scholarship every semester on their
                                    respective fees. However, in cases of misconduct or rule violations, disciplinary action may

                                Currently, the programme is designed as a one-year transfer
                                    option. Students will spend their fourth year at Illinois Institute of Technology,

                                        Degree UG Programme with Illinois Institute of Technology?
                                    
        
                                    
                                 
                                Students are strongly encouraged to decide on opting for the
                                    3+1 Dual Degree UG Programme before starting their undergraduate journey at Masters’ Union.
