What is the admission procedure,criteria and result declaration procedure of an IISER 2020 and the Future Scope

Hi Esha!

There are three channels of admission into the IISERs(Pune, Kolkata, Mohali, Bhopal, Thiruvanthapuram, Berhampur and Tirupati) for undergraduate BS-MS program:-

• Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana channel (KVPY)
• Joint Entrance Examination (JEE-Advanced) of the Indian Institutes of Technology
• State and Central Boards Channel (SCB). ( There are different cut off percentage of different states and central boards )

If you are a KVPY Fellowship holder - SA, SB or SX - then you can apply for admission to the IISER BS-MS Program via the KVPY stream.

The eligibility (the minimum rank required in JEE Advanced for IISER admission committee to consider your application) is below 10000.

For SCB, you first have to score more than a specified cut-off in your 12th Board Exams to be eligible to give the SCB exam(top 20 percentile). But in 2020, due to COVID-19 crisis, the cutoff for boards is relaxed upto 60%.After clearing the eligibility criteria you can sit for the exam. Again just like any other exam the cut-off varies every year. (PS~There is no actual release of cutoffs for the SCB stream).

Also after you complete your bachelor's you may join IISER'S for Integrated PhD, or MS by Research. For this you have to qualify exams like IIT-JAM or JEST.

The results of IAT is released on the official website. However, it is just a list of roll numbers that are to allotted seats in the IISERs(no marks or rank is released). Same happens for KVPY and JEE Advanced, only list of the roll numbers of the selected candidates is released.

The IISER 2020 Admission through KVPY stream has already begun and the IISER Aptitude test 2020(through SCB stream) has ended and the seat allotment will soon begin. Only stream left is JEE Advanced.

All the best!
