Hello Student,

Admission to the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) is primarily for undergraduate students through the IISER Aptitude Test, KVPY, and JEE Advanced. However, IISER does not typically accept students directly into the 2nd or 3rd year of their BSc programs, as they offer a 5-year dual degree program leading to a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and Master of Science (M.S.).

If you're already pursuing a BSc in Microbiology and wish to join IISER, you would likely need to apply as a fresh applicant and start from the beginning of their integrated BS-MS program. However, it's recommended to directly check with the specific IISER you are interested in, as policies can sometimes vary, and there might be provisions for lateral entry or specific pathways under certain circumstances.

Thankyou. Hope this helps you
