Admission to the B.Sc + MS (Computer Science) program at Scaler School of Technology involves the Scaler NSET, an online, remote-proctored entrance exam focusing on Mathematics, Logical Reasoning, and Learnability. Post-exam, candidates face two personal interview rounds that delve into math skills and personal aspirations. The program has an acceptance rate of approximately 2.8 to 3.5%, with eligibility requiring candidates to be under 20 years of age and have passed Class 12, preferably with Mathematics.
There are no reservation policies, but scholarships are available for economically weaker sections or high NSET performers. The exam typically requires a total score of around 24% or more than 45% in any individual section to proceed to interviews. Each intake from January to August has varying cutoffs, generally averaging around 40%. Multiple attempts for the exam are allowed. A referral discount can be applied to the application fee, which initially is Rs 1000.
The admission process does not consider JEE scores but values them for scholarship criteria. Candidates are advised to check detailed timelines and any updates directly on Scaler's official website.
