Admissions
The admission process for the Business Administration program at Mahapurusha Srimanta Sankaradeva Viswavidyalaya Nagaon is highly competitive and rigorous, ensuring that only the most qualified candidates are admitted each year. Prospective students must follow a multi-stage application procedure designed to evaluate academic excellence, aptitude, and potential for success in the business domain.
The first stage involves submitting an online application form through the university's official portal. Candidates must provide personal details, educational qualifications, and academic transcripts from their qualifying examination. A non-refundable application fee of INR 1000 is required at this stage.
Following submission, candidates undergo document verification where all supporting documents such as mark sheets, certificates, identity proof, and caste certificates (if applicable) are scrutinized by the admission committee. Any discrepancies in documentation may lead to disqualification from further consideration.
