The students can begin registering through the official online admission portal which has been excepting the applications from April 13, it said.

Two-step admission process

The university has introduced a two-part pre-admission system:

- Part 1: Pre-Registration: To be completed before the Class 12 results are declared

- Part 2: Application: To be completed after the Class 12 results are announced

Students must first register themselves on the portal before proceeding with the full application process.

Profile creation and required details

After registration, students will receive login credentials to create their profile.

They will need to provide-

- Personal details (name, address, contact number)

- Educational qualifications

- Reservation category (if applicable)

- Photograph and signature

- Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) ID

- ABC ID Mandatory for Registration

What is ABC ID

The university has made it compulsory for students to have an Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) ID for pre-admission registration, the official statement said.

Students who do not have an ABC ID must create one through the official government portal before applying, it said.

The Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) is a revolutionary digital platform by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, built to support every learner's journey - from early childhood to lifelong learning. In line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and powered by the National Credit Framework (NCrF), ABC acts as a dynamic academic portfolio that captures, stores, and showcases a learner's achievements across the entire education spectrum.

Whether a student is a 3-year-old beginning your foundational stage, a teenager exploring subjects, a college student pursuing your passion, a professional upskilling mid-career, or a senior citizen learning out of curiosity - ABC belongs to the applicant for entire education of a student.

Courses and colleges covered

The registration process applies to admissions in -

- Arts, Commerce and Science streams

- Affiliated, autonomous, aided and unaided colleges

- Recognised institutions and university departments

- Sub-campuses in Thane, Kalyan and Ratnagiri district in Maharashtra

All principals, directors and department heads have been instructed to ensure smooth implementation of the process, the statement said.

How to apply?

Students can access the pre-registration link under the "Admissions" section on the university's official website.

They must complete registration and profile creation to be eligible for admission once results are declared.
