The Symbiosis Entrance Exam for Design (SEED) 2025 does not have an officially declared cutoff score by the Symbiosis Institute of Design (SID). However, based on trends from previous years, the expected cutoff for SEED 2025 is likely to fall between 55% and 65% of the total score. Since the SEED exam is marked out of 60, this equates to an estimated cutoff in the range of 33 to 39 marks.

The (Symbiosis Entrance Exam for Design) SEED results are typically released on the official website of Symbiosis Institute of Design (SID). Candidates can check this score by logging in with the registered credentials. This passing score for SEED is not officially fixed as admission is based on merit and cutoff marks set by SID each year. Generally a score above 50% is considered safe but top institutions may require high cutoffs.

SID doesn't offer any short term / distance courses. The institute presently offers only full time Under- Graduate degree courses.

At the UG level, the institute offers a regular B.Des program, while a hybrid M.Des program is offered at the PG level.

Admission to both courses will be through the SEED 2025 entrance exam.

Candidates who are allotted seats will have to pay the seat-acceptance fee within the given deadline. If the payment is not made, the allotment will be cancelled. Further, the vacant seat will be offered to the candidate next in the order of merit.

Yes, the shortlisted candidates will have to appear in a Studio Test. SID will conduct the Strudio Test and Personal Interaction (STPI) from May 9-11, 2025.

Candidates who are included in the STPI shortlist need to participate. Note that the shortlist will be released on May 6, 2025.

The SID admission portal mentions nothing about the validity of the SEED 2025 scorecard.

Nonetheless, it can be presumed that the SEED scorecard will be valid for the current admission session only. So, if you qualify in SEED 2025, you need to apply for admission in the current academic session only.
