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.
Students who have qualified for the IPU CET and have not been allotted any college in any of the rounds, or not paid the part academic fee, or have not registered in the online counselling participation process are eligible to participate in the spot round. Spot round is the last round of the seat allotment process. Spot round is conducted if there are any vacant seats in colleges affiliated with IPU. Spot Round is on the basis of first come and first serve, which means whoever comes first gets the seat allotted.
