After submitting, take at least 4 printouts of the confirmation page. Also print proof of fee paid and keep extra photos same as uploaded. Keep them safe for future.

Better take 6–8 colored passport photos with white background. Keep them safe, you may need them during form, admission or counselling.

You must scan your passport photo and signature. Photo 10–200 KB, signature 4–30 KB, jpg/jpeg only. Photo should show 80% of face, no mask, white background.

You can apply if you passed 10+2 or similar exam. English must be there in your study. Even if you're appearing for 10+2 this year, you can apply, but final admission needs pass certificate.
