The e-counselling process for admission to one MA Program and five PG Diploma programs at the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC), will begin from May 28, 2025. Students who have valid CUET-PG score can register for e-counselling at https://iimc.admissions.nic.in.
For this, students need to deposit an online registration fee of Rs. 1,500 (General) and Rs. 1,000 (EWS/OBC/SC/ST/PH). Last date to register is June 8.
According to Prof. (Dr.) Rakesh Goswami, who is in charge of admissions, IIMC has opened admissions to candidates of subjects other than mass communication and journalism, too, this year. “For the new program called MA in New Media Communications, candidates who have CUET PG score in Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Cyber Security etc. (MTQP 04), Computer Science and Information Technology (SCQP 09) and Applied Arts (HUQP 03) are also eligible to apply apart from those who have CUET PG score in mass communication and journalism,” he said.
Similarly, candidates with CUET PG scores in Economics and Commerce are eligible to apply for the new program called PG Diploma in Corporate Communication and Brand Management at IIMC Dhenkanal. However, for admission to the PG Diploma in English Journalism, Hindi Journalism, Advertising & Public Relations and Radio & Television Journalism, only candidates with CUET PG score in mass communication and journalism are eligible.
Prof. Goswami said candidates should read instructions and fill their preferences carefully for the programs and campuses while filling the registration form. Any request for changes in the preferences will not be accepted after the submission of the registration form. Once the program selection is finalized, candidates are required to make an advance payment of Rs. 20,000 as tuition fee to secure their seat in the preferred program. The remaining balance must be paid within the stipulated date and time to complete the admission process.
He said that there is no age limit for admissions to any of the MA programs. For age eligibility for diploma programs, candidates are advised to read the instructions before registering for the counselling process.
Prof. Goswami added that it is mandatory for each candidate to submit a high school certificate for verification of the Date of Birth and the final graduation mark sheet. The candidates awaiting their graduation final result need to submit their required documents within the stipulated date and time.
