Candidates seeking admission for the BHMTT course at AAFT must have completed their Class 12 from a recognised board. The admission procedure includes two stages. In the first stage, they must appear for the AAFT Global Entrance Exam (AAFT GEE), which evaluates their aptitude, and after that, they have to go through an interview round. This selection process ensures that only eligible candidates are shortlisted. However, all the potential candidates must study well the regulations and requirements of admissions and assist themselves very well to ensure they pass the entrance as well as the interviews.
