Dr. Homi Bhabha State University, Mumbai Application/Admission Process

Dr. Homi Bhabha State University (HBSU), Mumbai, offers admissions to UG, PG, and PhD programs primarily through an online process involving merit, entrance exams like HBSU CET, and counselling. The 2026 admissions are expected to follow a similar timeline to recent years, with tentative dates shifting forward; candidates should check the official portal hbsuadm.samarth.edu.in for updates.

Admission Process

  • Admissions at HBSU start with online registration on the official portal, where candidates fill forms and upload documents.
  • Shortlisting occurs based on Class 10+2 marks for UG, graduation scores for PG, or master's for PhD, supplemented by entrance tests like HBSU CET for select courses.
  • Shortlisted applicants then attend counselling or interviews.
  • Final selection requires document verification, fee payment, and seat allotment via merit lists.

Eligibility Criteria

  • For UG courses like B.Sc., B.Com., and BMS, candidates need to pass Class 12 from a recognized board, often in relevant streams (e.g., science for B.Sc.).
  • PG programs such as M.Sc. and M.Com. require a bachelor's degree (e.g., B.Sc. for M.Sc., B.Com. for M.Com.) from a recognized university with minimum 50-60% marks.
  • PhD applicants must hold a master's degree; selection involves academic records, entrance exams, interviews, and reservations for SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PWD as per Maharashtra norms.
