Admission of any candidate under the foreign student category is considered ‘in absentia’ regardless of whether the applicant is in India at time of application or outside of the country.  That is to say that her/his application is considered according to criteria for admission of foreign applicants and s/he does not go through the admission process (and activities) for Indian applicants.

VII. After reaching Delhi. . .

Upon reaching Delhi, the international applicants offered provisional admission will meet with personnel of the AUD International Affairs Division and other units in order to be guided through admission formalities and registration and to be oriented towards staying in Delhi. The International Affairs Division at AUD (iadoffice[at]aud[dot]ac[dot]in)  is  the nodal administrative unit for international students at the university and endeavours to assist them to ensure an enriching association with the university.

All international students should check the AUD website from time to time and be alert to email and other communications.
