Indicative 2026–27 academic fees: The official university fee structure publishes academic fees for the 2026–27 session, including an academic fee and an early-bird discount, with a separate yearly payable academic-fee figure. The following are selected annual academic-fee figures shown on the official fee page after the listed discount:

These are annual academic-fee figures, not necessarily the complete cost of a programme. The university also lists additional charges: a one-time application fee of ₹1,000, annual development fee of ₹10,000, annual online library fee of ₹2,000, one-time alumni fund of ₹3,000, annual insurance fee of ₹500, refundable caution money of ₹5,000, examination fee of ₹2,000 per semester, and annual activity fee of ₹2,000. Students should confirm the applicable fee schedule, discount conditions, payment instalments, and any programme-specific charges with the university before admission.

Third-party fee listings may show total tuition fees for the complete course duration and can differ from the official annual fee table. For example, CollegeDunia lists B.Tech fees at approximately ₹7.23 lakh to ₹8.02 lakh for the full programme in its 2026 listing, while Shiksha shows a wider B.E./B.Tech tuition-fee range of ₹6.4 lakh to ₹10.4 lakh. These figures may reflect differences in course specialisation, duration, fee components, or updates to the listings; they should not be treated as directly interchangeable with the official annual academic-fee figures.

Hostel accommodation is available at the university. Hostel fees are published separately from academic fees and may vary by room occupancy, facilities, and academic session. Students should check the current 2026–27 hostel fee schedule and confirm whether mess, utilities, and other accommodation-related charges are included.

Apeejay Stya University Admission 2026–27

Application Form Start Date: 01 January 2026 (CollegeDunia course listing; not confirmed as the university-wide official opening date)
Application Form Last Date: 30 September 2026 (CollegeDunia admission page; third-party reported)
Admission Status: The university’s official website announces admissions open for the 2026–27 session. The dates above are reported by CollegeDunia and should be confirmed with the university for the relevant programme.

Apeejay Stya University offers admission to undergraduate, postgraduate, diploma, integrated, and Ph.D. programmes through a process that may include academic merit, entrance examination scores, written tests, personal interviews, or other programme-specific selection requirements. The university considers applicants’ previous academic performance and, where applicable, scores from recognised national-level entrance examinations or its own assessment process.

For undergraduate programmes, applicants are generally required to have completed Class 12 or an equivalent qualification from a recognised board. The minimum percentage and subject requirements depend on the chosen programme. For postgraduate programmes, applicants are normally required to hold a relevant bachelor’s degree, while Ph.D. applicants must meet the prescribed postgraduate qualification and research-related eligibility criteria.

For B.Tech programmes, the university lists Class 12 eligibility and considers relevant entrance scores or merit, depending on the specialisation. Shiksha states that B.Tech Biotechnology admission may involve a written test or personal interview, while other B.Tech specialisations are generally merit-based. MBA applicants may be considered through qualifying examination marks and accepted entrance scores, with selection stages varying according to the programme and university’s current admission policy. Other courses, including law, pharmacy, design, education, and research programmes, may have additional eligibility or selection requirements.

General application process:

1. Visit the official Apeejay Stya University website and open the admissions or application portal.

2. Select the programme and specialisation for which admission is sought.

3. Complete the application form with personal, contact, and academic details.

4. Upload the required documents and provide entrance examination details, where applicable.

5. Pay the application fee through the available payment method.

6. Participate in any required entrance test, written assessment, interview, or counselling process.

7. If selected, follow the university’s instructions for document verification, fee payment, and admission confirmation.

Applicants may be asked to provide Class 10 and Class 12 mark sheets or certificates, graduation documents for postgraduate admission, transfer or migration certificates where applicable, identity proof, photographs, entrance examination scorecards, and category or scholarship-related documents if relevant.

Apeejay Stya University’s official admissions page confirms that UG, PG, and Ph.D. admissions are open for 2026–27, but a single university-wide application start date and final closing date are not clearly stated there. CollegeDunia’s course listing shows 01 January to 31 July 2026 for several courses, while its admission page reports 30 September 2026 as the final admission deadline. These third-party dates conflict, so the university’s programme-specific admission office or portal should be treated as the final source for current availability and deadlines.

CUTOFF DESCRIPTION

Apeejay Stya University follows programme-specific admission and selection criteria. Depending on the course, admission may be based on Class 12 or graduation marks, merit evaluation, national-level entrance examination scores, a university-level test, written assessment, or personal interview. Therefore, there is no single cutoff applicable to all programmes offered by the university.

For B.Tech programmes, eligibility generally includes Class 12 with the required subjects and a minimum aggregate percentage. JEE Main and CUET scores may be considered, while the selection process can differ by specialisation. Shiksha’s 2026 cutoff listing reports a JEE Main Round 1 closing rank of 5,99,000 for the General All-India category across several listed B.Tech programmes, including Computer Science and Engineering, CSE with Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, CSE with IoT and Cyber Security, and Biotechnology. Shiksha identifies this as third-party cutoff data, and it should be treated as indicative rather than as a guaranteed admission threshold.

For management programmes such as BBA and MBA, selection may consider qualifying examination marks and applicable entrance examination scores. MBA applicants may be considered through examinations such as CAT, XAT, MAT, CMAT, CUET PG, or the university’s own assessment, depending on the programme and current admission policy. For law, pharmacy, design, education, science, and other programmes, eligibility and selection requirements vary according to the relevant academic and regulatory criteria.

The university’s official admissions information describes merit-based selection and consideration of national or international entrance examination scores, where applicable. However, a consolidated official cutoff list for all programmes and categories for the 2026–27 session was not identified in the reviewed official information. Applicants should therefore check the latest programme-specific eligibility and selection notice before applying. A previous year’s cutoff or a third-party listed closing rank should not be considered a guarantee of admission for a future admission cycle.

PLACEMENT DESCRIPTION

Apeejay Stya University’s Corporate Resource Centre (CRC) supports students with career development, industry interaction, internship opportunities, placement preparation, and recruitment-related activities. The university describes its approach as combining academic learning with practical exposure, professional skills, mentorship, live projects, guest lectures, and interaction with industry professionals. Its Training and Competency Building initiatives are intended to help students prepare for workplace expectations and explore career opportunities across different sectors.

According to the university’s official website, students and alumni have been associated with organisations across technology, consulting, media, finance, healthcare, engineering, and other industries. Companies and organisations featured in the university’s placement and alumni information include Microsoft, Meta, Siemens, Tata, HCL, Infosys, Deloitte, NDTV, ICICI Bank, HDFC, and other recruiters. Recruiter participation and hiring opportunities may differ by school, programme, student profile, and placement cycle.

Reported placement highlights: Shiksha’s 2025 placement page reports a highest package of ₹52 LPA and participation from more than 200 companies. Shiksha attributes these figures to university-level placement information, but also notes that the university has not published the 2025 average package. CollegeDunia’s placement page, by comparison, states that a 2025 placement report was not released and lists an earlier highest package of ₹13 LPA and average package of ₹5 LPA. These figures are inconsistent and should not be combined or presented as one verified placement outcome.

The university’s homepage also displays a highest salary package of ₹25 LPA and 154+ recruiters, but the academic year or placement cohort associated with those figures is not clearly specified in the available page extract. As a result, these figures should be treated as university website highlights without assuming that they represent the same placement cycle as the 2025 figures reported by Shiksha.

Placement outcomes depend on several factors, including the programme, specialisation, academic performance, practical skills, internships, communication abilities, and the recruitment requirements of participating organisations. Students should review programme-wise placement reports, where available, and confirm the placement year, number of eligible students, number of students placed, salary metrics, and recruiter participation with the university before using a single figure to assess placement performance.
