Sunder Deep College of Architecture (SDCA) follows a well-defined, transparent admission process designed to facilitate eligible candidates in pursuing their architectural education seamlessly. This process primarily revolves around entrance examinations and merit-based selections and emphasizes early preparation, proper documentation, and timely submission of applications.
Applications for admission to various architecture programs at SDCA can be submitted both online and offline. The college provides an easy online application portal on its official website where candidates can register themselves by filling in basic details, uploading necessary documents, and paying the application fee.
Offline applications are also accepted through the college’s admission office, where candidates can visit to collect and submit physical application forms and documents if preferred. However, online submission is strongly recommended for faster processing and streamlined communication.
For admission into the Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) program, candidates are required to appear for the National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) conducted by the Council of Architecture (CoA) or other recognized state or national-level entrance exams such as UPCET B.Arch, CUET, or UPTAC.
For the Master of Architecture (M.Arch) course, candidates must have valid scores from entrance tests like GATE Architecture, or other recognized postgraduate architecture entrance examinations.
Candidates without valid scores in the required entrance exams are generally not eligible for admission to SDCA.
Admission at SDCA is primarily merit-based, considering the candidate's performance in relevant entrance exams as well as their academic record at the higher secondary (for UG) or graduation (for PG) level. The counseling and seat allocation depend on merit ranks in these qualifying exams.
After merit lists are declared, shortlisted candidates are invited for counseling sessions organized by the college or respective university authorities, where seat allotments take place based on ranks and availability.
