The application process for EWS admissions began on April 7, 2021, and the first draw was supposed to be held on April 30, 2021. However, it was postponed due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The process for general admissions in the entry-level classes was also delayed by over two months this year in view of the pandemic.
