The reason for the low acceptance rate is the fact that not everyone can access the institute's world class facilities and academic services and are only reserved for the very best and the brightest of minds. 

Prospective students must maintain high academic scores during their school and college level education, provide proof of English proficiency and also demonstrate non-academic abilities that can be useful in their career in the future.
