How JAIN admissions work

  1. Step 1

    Check eligibility

    Bachelor's programmes accept 10+2 from any recognised board (45% aggregate). Master's programmes accept a UGC-recognised bachelor's degree (50% aggregate; 45% for SC/ST/OBC). No upper age limit. Working-professional applicants get priority counselling.

  2. Step 2

    Pick your specialisation

    Speak to a counsellor about the specialisation that fits your career goal. JAIN Online MBA offers 13 specialisations; MCA offers 6. We avoid pushing you into the wrong fit — the cost of switching mid-programme is real.

  3. Step 3

    Submit documents

    Indian applicants: 10th and 12th mark sheets, graduation mark sheets and degree, government ID, passport-size photo, statement of purpose. NRI / international applicants additionally need AIU equivalence (we help with this).

  4. Step 4

    Pay and start

    Pay Semester I fees (or first EMI) to confirm your seat. Onboarding session within 7 days. Live + recorded classes accessible immediately. Cohort welcome call within 14 days.
