You haven't mentioned whether you are enquiring about Undergraduate or Post graduate exams. Nevertless, the last date for filling the application for both Undergraduate and Postgraduate has been extended until April 30th. So if you haven't filled in the application form yet, you can apply by visiting their official website: https://admissions.tiss.edu/

Sonu, admission to Master's courses in Tata Institute of Social Sciences occurs through TISSNET. Now, you can apply for TISSNET if you fulfill the conditions required as stipulated by the institution. These conditions are known as eligibility criteria. Now, the eligibility criteria for applying for TISSNET in terms of educational qualification in most cases ie for admission to most courses is that the candidate should be graduate in any stream or discipline or he/she must be appearing in their final graduation paper and have to submit their passing certificate by any date stipulated. As far as you are graduate, you can apply for most cases, however, for some courses like MA (Organisation Development, Change and Leadership), Master of Public Health (Social Epidemiology), M.A. Social Work in (Disability Studies and Action) etc , the requirement is that graduation should be from a certain stream or subject or there should be some job or internship experience for the candidates. For mire information about these eligibility criteria, you can use the link

As regards to query about choice of specialization, the choice should be such that should generate interest and entertain you. It totally depends on your interest areas, however, there are some courses or specialization which are quite popular among the student groups and some of them are M.A. in (Human Resources Management and Labour Relations) ,  MBA, Master's of Arts etc. So, the specialization should be such that the student feels comfortable in it and is usually chosen by applicantd in the stream as graduation.

National Entrance Test(TISS-NET) is computer based test and it is going to be held on 4-01-2020 and the duration of the test is 1:40 mins.I am afraid that you are not eligible with an active backlog for this test.Actually you quoted that your supplementary  exam was on 20-12-2019 and I am sure that your results of that exam will not be announced anytime soon  .So, there is no chance for you to write the  TISS-NET exam.I wish you a better luck next time and make sure that while you are writing the test again in the next year, do not maintain an active backlog.

Hi Madhurima,

Thanks for A2A.

Inorder to get admission into any program in TISS, you need to apply with you CAT score and write the TISSNET exam. The exa is very much similar to CAT and is hosted in around January. You need to have a minimum Bachelor's degree to be eligible to apply. Even students in final year of graduation can also apply for this.

All the best

Dear Satya, For being eligible for TISSNET, Candidates must obtain a ‘Pass Class’ in the Bachelor's Degree in any discipline to become eligible to fill the TISSNET MBA application form 2019. Candidates should obtain a three year’s Bachelor’s degree or equivalent (10+2+3 or 10+2+4 or 10+2+2+1 year bridge course pattern or any other study-pattern fulfilling the requirements of 15 years of formal education) across disciplines from any recognised college/university. Apart from the general TISSNET MBA eligibility criteria 2019, there are certain specific eligibility parameters fixed for particular subjects/programmes. For the Postgraduate degree (M.A.) in Human Resources Management and Labour Relations (HRM) requires candidates to satisfy both General eligibility and a Graduation degree in any discipline. The eligibility talks about the minimum qualification needed and you have it. So you are eligible to attempt NEET. And the website doesnt mention anything about age. I would suggest you to contact them at their helpline 022- 25525252. 

Candidates with final year graduation or who have conpleted graduation with Minimum 50%aggregate marks from recognised University are eligible. Studnets in final year must hav epassed all semesters prior to that and will be aksed to submit provisional degree certificate while counselling and admissions.
