FAQs

A. You are required to upload documents related to your academic records:

• Mark sheets or passing certificates,
• Degree or Diploma Certificates or bonafide letter for “10+2” onwards till last degree obtained
• Curriculum Vitae,
• Experience Letter (if applicable) and
• A photo

Q. Is there any requirement of qualifying any tests before applying?
A. Mostly the GMAT may be required for the MBAs and certain other management programmes (there are several MBAs that also accept without the GMAT score. GRE is definitely not required). Most institutes are comfortable with the level of English and do not necessarily ask for a TOEFL or IELTS (some exceptions exist, especially if they cannot ascertain the level of linguistic competence of the student in a telephonic interview). If the course is in French then a standard test like the DELF, TCF or DALF may be asked. The TCF is hosted by all the Alliances in the month of February. To know about the calendar of these tests please visit www.afindia.org or contact the CampusFrance office nearest to you.
