Why You Must Read the Brochure Before Applying
The Information Brochure is not optional reading — it is the legal document that governs your admission. Every rule in it is binding. If you miss a deadline, submit the wrong document, or fail to follow a procedure, your application can be rejected or your seat can be cancelled, even if you did not know the rule.
Many candidates lose their seats because they did not read the brochure carefully. Common mistakes include submitting a category certificate issued before a certain date, missing the document upload deadline, or not joining within the prescribed time. The brochure tells you exactly what to do and when — follow it precisely.
