All India Combined Entrance Test
The All India Combined Entrance Test, also known as AICET, is a common entrance test that has been specially designed for students from any stream. Whether a student is applying for Creative Courses or Business Programs, AICET is the first step in the selection process. This test is divided into two parts:

General Ability Test (GAT)
The General Ability Test measures general intelligence of the candidates. The test aims at evaluating the candidate through quantitative, analytical and logical ability. It assesses the general knowledge and communication skills of the candidate. It also focuses on testing the students' capacity for learning in general, regardless of any specific skill in a certain subject or topic.

Creative Ability Test (CAT)
The CAT is designed to assess the Drawing skills, Observation & Visualization ability of the candidate. It judges the intuitive ability as well as creative and innovative use of colour and illustration skills. For students applying for Media & Mass communication, it assesses their verbal communication ability and creative writing skills.
For business students there is a Personality Assessment Test that identifies the personality traits and interest areas of the applicant and helps determine the profession best suited for the candidate and where he/ she is most likely to succeed in the professional career. Communication Ability Test that evaluates the proficiency in English communication skills – reading, writing and speaking. The communication skill is important to determine the employability in the industry.

Personal Interview
