Admission can be done in two ways, counselling and direct admission. When a student goes through the IPU counselling process, then the student has to participate in counselling by paying a fee online. Then the next step is registration, upload documents, document verification and choice filling (where students choose some of the colleges which they like and want to get admitted there).
Then the student has to wait for seat allotment through various rounds of counselling. The counselling process takes 1-2 months time to get a college allotted. There are various rounds of counselling – first round, second round, third round, sliding round and spot round. The main important thing is that the student should be happy with the college he/she is allotted. If the student is not happy with the college allotted, then the student enters the next round of counselling until the student is happy about the allotment of college.
Before the spot round is conducted by GGSIPU, there is a seat matrix, which shows which college has how many vacant seats. Spot round is conducted offline, students can check notice on IPU official website to check the venue for spot counselling.
Basically, there are many students and parents at the venue and you may be asked that this college has vacant seat in this course, would you like to get admission in this college or not. If you like the college, you can get your spot admission at that time itself by paying the fee. Students who have not participated in counselling can go for spot counselling and students who have been allotted colleges can also apply to change college.
