The admission process at Dr. D. Y. Patil School of Science and Technology is designed to be efficient, transparent, and student-friendly. It incorporates online convenience with clear criteria and timelines to help aspiring candidates secure admission smoothly in their desired programs. The application process predominantly occurs through an online portal, which supports document uploading, fee payments, and timely communication.
The first step involves visiting the official admissions portal at https://admissions.dpuerp.in. Here, candidates must create an account and complete the online application form by providing personal details, academic qualifications, and program preferences. Online registration is the primary mode of application, making the entire process accessible and convenient from anywhere.
After filling out the application, candidates must pay a non-refundable application and processing fee online, typically ranging between ₹1,300 and ₹1,550 depending on the chosen course. This payment secures the applicant’s participation in subsequent admission stages.
Once the application is successfully submitted and fee cleared, candidates can download their admit card online. This is usually made available approximately two weeks prior to the entrance exam date. The admit card is essential for appearing in the entrance test and contains exam details such as date, time, and instructions.
To ensure fair and merit-based admissions, programs such as B.Tech, B.Sc., and BCA require candidates to appear for the All India Online Proctored Entrance Test (e.g., BTAICET). This exam comprises questions on Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Logical Reasoning, English, and Computer Concepts. The online proctored mode allows candidates to take the test securely from any location.
After conducting the entrance exams, the institute publishes the merit list on its official website. The shortlisted candidates who meet the merit criteria advance to the counselling and document verification stage.
Qualified candidates are required to attend counselling sessions either on-campus or virtually. During this stage, candidates submit original documents for verification, such as mark sheets, identity proofs, and category certificates. This step also includes guidance for selecting courses and filling preferences.
Upon successful document verification and seat allotment, candidates must pay the tuition fees and other applicable charges within the stipulated deadlines. This payment confirms the candidate’s admission and reserves their seat in the respective program.
After fee payment and acceptance of the seat, students receive the official final admission offer letter from Dr. D. Y. Patil School of Science and Technology. This letter marks the completion of the admission process.
While the institute encourages online applications via the official portal, offline applications can be made by visiting the admissions office physically, although this option is less preferred. All supporting documents, including photographs, mark sheets, and photo IDs, must be uploaded digitally during the registration process.
For undergraduate science and technology courses like B.Tech, B.Sc., and BCA, candidates must take the university's proctored entrance exam, which tests knowledge in science, mathematics, reasoning, and communication skills. MCA admissions often rely on a relevant bachelor’s degree without a mandatory entrance test. The online proctored test ensures accessibility and transparency.
Candidate selection is based on a composite evaluation of entrance exam scores, board exam marks, and eligibility as per subject requirements and minimum percentage criteria. The final selection occurs only after successful verification of documents and fee payment.
