Academic History
- Read and follow the instructions for reporting your educational history.
- Make sure to list the title of your 10th-year board examination certificate
and the date received in the column "Diploma/Degree/Certificate and Date" next
to the appropriate school.

certificate next to your high school of graduation.
Freshman Self-Reported Academic Record
- Read and follow the instructions for reporting your academic records.
Do not consider any board examination or regular school subjects "honors
level" on the application. We are already very familiar with these curricula
and will evaluate them accordingly.
- In the 10th grade column list
your 10th-year board examination subjects in the appropriate
subject areas. Next to each subject, enter the title of your
board certificate (example: "Math SSC"). Please write the word “none” in
the “first semester grade” column and enter your attained
and maximum marks in the "second semester grade" column (example: 75/100).
If you are completing the online application and are not able to enter both
attained and maximum marks in the manner just shown, you may list just your
attained marks (example: 75). We will assume that your maximum marks are 100.
If your maximum marks are not 100, please report this in your Personal Statement.
- In the 12th grade column,
indicate the courses in progress for your 12th year Certificate. Next to
each subject, enter the title of your board certificate
(example: "Math AISSC" or "Math HSSC").
- If you have already completed your 12th-year
board examinations, list your final marks in the 12th-grade column. Make
sure to tell us what you have been
doing since you graduated.
- If you have begun to attend another educational institution or
plan to do so at any point before the term you are applying for,
you must list it in your educational history. Remember that once
you enroll
in a university or post-secondary college during the academic year
after completing your 12th-year board examinations you are considered
a transfer student. The eligibility requirements
for transfer students are different.
- If you have not begun to attend another educational
institution and do not plan to do so before the term you are
applying for, please clarify your activities in the Gap in Education
section.
