CHANDIGARH, Aug 25 — Panjab University (PU) has extended the deadline for submission of admission applications for foreign nationals and non-resident Indian (NRI) students to September 10. The extension applies to all programs except Dental Sciences, BA/BCom LLB, MBA courses, and other programs regulated by statutory authorities.
All applicants are required to send their completed and scanned admission forms, along with supporting documents in PDF format, to the Dean, International Students, at dis@pu.ac.in.
The university has set aside 25% supernumerary seats in each undergraduate and postgraduate program for international students, in addition to 10% of seats reserved for NRIs and their wards. This provision does not apply to courses governed by specific regulatory bodies.
“Applicants from underdeveloped countries are also eligible for roughly 50% fee concession,” a university spokesperson noted, highlighting efforts to attract a diverse student population.
The annual fee for NRI and foreign national students varies by course, ranging from approximately USD 1,425 to USD 6,000. Students from SAARC nations and other underdeveloped countries are eligible for reduced concessional fees.
Officials said the extension aims to provide additional time for prospective students to complete applications and ensure a smooth admission process amid global challenges.
