XAT Selection Process

Those who do not get the confirmation letter may believe they have been rejected for admission. Candidates should keep an eye on their emails. They must also continue to examine spam folders. It is also critical to utilize the right and fully working email ID when registering for the XAT, as this is the primary point of contact for correspondence from the institute.
