On Question asked by student community
Hello,
No, SRM University usually does not allow exchanging or transferring the exam fee between phases. Since you paid for Phase 3, you’ll need to pay separately for Phase 1 if you wish to appear earlier.
However, you can contact SRM admission helpdesk via email or phone, sometimes they make exceptions if registration is still open.
Hope you understand.
Hello,
Yes, you can pursue entrepreneurship at IVB Chennai along with a distance or online business degree from SRM or another university. IVB focuses on practical learning, internships, and startup building, while the distance degree gives you a recognised qualification.
Make sure the distance degree is UGC-approved so it’s valid for future studies or jobs. This combination is good if you want to start your own business, but check the total cost and ensure you can manage both programs together.
