Compare FLAME University, Pune vs UID Ahmedabad

The goal of our assessment process is to select the best performing and well-rounded applicants who can contribute to and enhance the learning experience at FLAME University. We have an internal assessment process that considers the following aspects of your application:

• Admission Test (FDAT / UCEED / NIFT / NID)
• Online Personal Interview
• Past Academic Record
• Extracurricular Activities/ Professional Achievements
• Statement of Purpose (SOP)

We shortlist candidates based on their overall performance on all the parameters listed above. As an applicant, if you score below average in one of the parameters, but your application is strong in other aspects, chances are you might still get an offer from FLAME University. Obviously, the higher the test score, the better your chances of getting an offer letter. Your chances of selection are brighter if you have a strong academic record, a well-articulated SOP, and extracurricular/ professional achievements.

• FDAT is optional for those who have UCEED/ NIFT / NID scores.

Needless to say, a high entrance test score improves one’s chances of selection.
