Admission Process

The admission process for the International Relations program at Alliance University Bangalore is structured and transparent, ensuring fair selection based on merit. Prospective students must first meet eligibility criteria before applying through designated channels.

Application begins with registration on the official university website or the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) portal. Students are required to submit accurate personal details, academic transcripts, and supporting documents such as caste certificates, disability certificates, and migration certificates if applicable.

Following document verification, candidates must appear for either JEE Main or JEE Advanced exams, depending on their eligibility. The entrance examination evaluates knowledge in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and English. Scores are normalized and ranked to determine cutoffs for each category.

After the announcement of results, students proceed to the counseling stage where they can choose their preferred institutions and branches based on available seats and their ranks. Seat allocation is done through a computerized system ensuring equitable distribution among candidates.

Applicants must satisfy the following eligibility conditions:

• Must have completed 12th grade or equivalent examination with Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics as core subjects
