Applied Linguistics and English Language Teaching MA

·        Foundation

For CBSE and HSC Boards an average of 70% across the best four subjects, including relevant subjects, at Class XII is required. For the West Bengal Board an average of 65% is required across the best four subjects, including relevant subjects.

For the Engineering foundation programme relevant subjects are Maths and Physics. For Science they are Maths and one Science subject (Biology or Chemistry). For Social Sciences and Business, Maths is the relevant subject. 
 

·        Undergraduate

 
Class XII or Standard 12 (10+2) examinations from CBSE, ISCE or a state board are acceptable for admission onto  bachelors programmes. Generally ask for the best of four subjects, and any subject-specific requirements will reflect the overall percentage required (eg. 85% in best four subjects including 85% in Maths).

Students who have taken a 3 year diploma after Class 11 instead of the Class XII exams can be considered for second year entry to bachelors programmes.

Typical offers for a course requiring A level grades of AAA / AAB would be:

·        CBSE and ISC– 85-90%

·        West Bengal – 75-80%

·        Other State Boards – 90%

70% in Year 12 English from CBSE or ISC can be considered as meeting the minimum English language entry requirement, although some courses may ask for a higher grade.

The university does not accept the local language as one of the four subject grades on which they  base an offer, and many schools also exclude Environmental Education from offer grades. 

·        Masters

 
The taught masters programmes with a UK 2:1 entry level require an Indian bachelors degree with a minimum of 60-75% average or a CGPA of 6.0-7.5 out of 10 from a recognised institution.

The exact score required will depend on the institution you have studied at and the course you have applied for.

Some flexibility may be given for Delhi University students who take Arts subjects, and for selected Law programmes including those from Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Govt Law College, Kolkata, NALSAR, NLSIU, ILS and Amity Law School - in these cases, 55% is normally acceptable for courses which require a UK 2:1 equivalent.
 

·        PhD & research

 
A masters and bachelors degree from a recognised University are usually required for PhD entry, although exceptional students may be considered for PhD entry without a masters qualification.

       The university requires a minimum of 60-75% average or a CGPA of 6.0-7.5 out of 10 from a recognised institution.

The exact score required will depend on the institution you have studied at and the course you have applied for.
