Study in India (SII) Program

The Study in India (SII) program is a flagship initiative of the Ministry of Education, Government of India aimed at promoting India as a global destination for higher education. This program offers international students a unique opportunity to explore educational opportunities at top Indian universities.

The SII program features a seamless system for students to register and explore courses across prestigious Indian institutes. India's higher education system with over 800 universities and 39,000 colleges, is the world's second-largest, offering globally competitive courses and degrees at an affordable cost.

‘Study in India (SII) Portal (https://studyinindia.gov.in/)’ is a one-stop platform for international students facilitating application submission, admission processes, course applications and visa formalities for those seeking to pursue regular, short-term or long-term courses in Indian Academic Institutions or Higher Educational Institutions. All foreign students wishing to study in India are required to register on the SII portal and submit the necessary information. Upon registration, a unique SII-ID will be generated, which must be quoted when applying for an e-Student/Student Visa on the Indian Visa Portal (https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/).

Students can directly apply for courses under this program by visiting the SII Portal. For further information, students may visit the website https://studyinindia.gov.in/.
