## Who can apply

- Availability: restricted
- Eligible: Applicants meeting this programme’s documented admission route
- Restriction: This is a non-campus degree: online instruction, in-person exam centres and any programme-specific laboratory visits. It does not provide a regular residential admission or automatic student-visa entitlement.
- Restriction: International learners must be able to access an available examination centre and complete any mandatory campus practical work; overseas facilitation fees and travel are separate.

Use the route for your nationality, qualification and admission category; department selection and document verification apply.

## Admissions

This four-year non-campus IIT Madras BS uses online teaching and in-person assessments, with flexible pacing up to eight years. The qualifier route is open to eligible school-leavers from different prior streams.

These requirements apply to the documented admission route. Qualifications, entrance tests and nationality/category rules must be assessed together.

- Pass Class XII or an accepted equivalent; no age or prior-stream restriction. Mathematics and English at Class X level are expected.
- Class XI-final-exam applicants may begin the qualification process, but can join only after passing Class XII.
- Regular admission requires the programme’s four-week qualifier coursework, minimum assignment scores and the in-person qualifier examination; category-specific passing rules apply.
- The documented JEE-based entry exempts eligible recent JEE Advanced candidates from the regular qualifier process; it does not turn this degree into a residential JoSAA seat.
- Have the required internet/computing facilities and attend in-person examinations at an approved centre. Any required IIT Madras laboratory visit needs separate travel and accommodation.

Steps:

1. Apply through this exact non-campus BS portal and submit the accepted school qualification and identity records.
2. Complete the regular qualifier process or establish the documented JEE-based entry, then register for eligible foundation courses.
3. Choose the course load, pay the applicable credit-based fees and plan in-person exams and any laboratory visits before confirming participation.

- Document: Class X and Class XII/equivalent records
- Document: Evidence for the claimed JEE-based entry, if applicable
- Application document: Identity/passport and required programme application records
- Application document: Applicable category/disability/income documents for the requested eligibility or fee support
- Application document: Medical certificate and other registration documents specified by the exact programme
Applications currently name the January 2027 qualifier/admission term with 29 January 2027 deadline. This names an admission/qualifier cohort, not a promise that regular foundation classes begin on 1 January. Follow the programme’s qualifier and registration notices.


## Teaching phases

- Foundation, Diploma and degree progression (English): Online coursework with in-person examinations. Exit awards depend on earned credits and are not additional independent residential admissions. The degree has its own credit and registration rules.
