Important Instructions
- Errors in personal or category details should be corrected before counselling registration; corrections may not be possible once seat allotment rounds begin.
- The IAT rank card is a read-only PDF and cannot be edited; contact the admissions team directly through iiseradmission.in if any detail is incorrect.
- Missing the SAF deadline in any round results in loss of that round's offer and forfeits consideration in that specific round - check current-round instructions on the portal to confirm whether re-entry into later rounds remains possible.
- Final admission requires reporting to the allotted institute as per that institute's own reporting schedule, in addition to completing the online counselling steps.
