For a transfer application to go through, an applicant must qualify for the programmes that he or she wishes to transfer to, in addition to satisfying the applicable cut-off points.
Further, a transfer application must be endorsed by both the receiving and the releasing institutions, which have been enabled to do so online.
Hence, students will not have to physically visit the institutions.
Applicants will be able to monitor the progress of their applications through the portal and, once approved, transfer letters will be posted on the portal for download by the applicants.
Application guidelines will be published on the application portal before the commencement the exercise.
