Procedure for admission of International students for full timeCourses in KIMSU.

  • Step 1: Students should purchase the International Student's Bulletin (including the eligibility form) and the prospectus of KIMSU. This information is also available on the website.

  • Step 2: Fill up the eligibility form for international students and submit it, along with the copies of certificates listed in the eligibility form and the required fees. This should be done well in time so that the student is able to obtain the visa and NOC before the due date of admission.

  • Step 3: Get the provisional admission letter from the International Students Cell, of KIMSU in order to obtain the visa.

  • Step 4: Show this letter to the Indian Embassy in the respective country and get a student visa endorsed to KIMSU. NRI students do not require a visa.

    • Degree/ Pass Certificate of the qualifying examination
    • Mark list of qualifying examination.
    • Student visa in original.
    • A Xerox copy of the passport - duly attested by a notary.

      Note: The original certificates will remain with the office till the student passes the course.

  • Step 6: Undergo the medical examination and get the medical fitness certificate. As per government rules all international students entering India on student visa have to be tested for HIV and will not be given admission if found to be positive. All international students will be required to pay medical fees of US $ 50, which includes the medical insurance cover for the first year. For subsequent years the medical insurance fees will be same as for other Indian students and is included in other fees.
