Admissions
The admission process for the Computer Science program at The Global Open University Dimapur is designed to identify talented students who are ready to thrive in a rigorous academic environment. The process involves several stages, starting with application submission and ending with seat acceptance.
Applicants must first submit an online application form through the official university portal. The form requires personal details, educational background, and preferences regarding specialization tracks. Candidates are also required to upload scanned copies of their 12th-grade marksheet, identity documents, and any relevant certificates or awards.
Following the initial screening, candidates who meet the eligibility criteria proceed to the qualifying examination stage. The university accepts scores from various entrance exams including JEE Advanced, JEE Main, and other recognized national-level tests. For applicants who have appeared in these exams, the university considers their ranks for admission purposes.
The next step involves document verification, where selected candidates must submit original documents for confirmation. This includes academic transcripts, proof of residence, and any additional certifications required by the university's admission policy.
Once all documents are verified, the final stage is the counseling process, where candidates choose their preferred courses based on their rank and available seats. The university conducts seat allocation rounds based on merit and preferences expressed during counseling.
The eligibility criteria for admission are as follows:
| Category | Age Limit | Qualifying Exam | Minimum Percentage in 12th Grade | Subject Combination |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| General | 25 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 75% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
| EWS | 25 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 70% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
| OBC-NCL | 25 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 65% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
| SC | 25 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 60% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
| ST | 25 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 60% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
| PwD (General) | 30 Years | JEE Advanced, JEE Main, or Equivalent | 50% | Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics |
