Other than Fatima College, I have applied to two colleges. One is Thiagarajar college of arts and science, in this college I have applied for B.Sc. Mathematics and B.Sc Chemistry. For B.sc mathematics i have a seat in Self finance but not interested in studying self finance. For Chemistry major I have a seat in that college but I'm not interested in Studying Chemistry. Other College was Lady Doak College, in that college I have applied for B.sc. Mathematics major and I'm also seated on that college but I also have seated on Fatima College as well. So I prefer Fatima College to Lady Doak.

I applied for M. A only in VHNSN because I wanted different experience. Previously I have studied in another college. So I thought my pg degree should be in some other college. I didn't get any rejection. If we apply once and if we are eligible for the course according to the norms of the college, they will call us to pay fee amount.
