2) Candidate should clearly mention the course and university to which he/she is seeking admission.The applicants are advised to go through the “Universities Handbook” available withour Mission before giving these details.

9) Students must carry a proper visa. Scholars for structured undergraduate and postgraduatecourses should carry full term “Student Visas” while for Ph.D. students “Research Visas”for a specific period of 4-5 years is required. Students should ensure that they get the correctvisa from the Indian Embassy/High Commission. Govt. of India guidelines stipulate that ifa scholar arrives without proper visa and his actual admission at the University/Institutedoes not materialize, he/she will be deported to his/her country.
In the case of students who require Research Visas, an additional application forthe Research Visa has to be filled and submitted in six copies alongwith sixphotographs & synopsis. Applicants may note that clearance of Research Visa can takeas long as six to eight months.
10) Before departing for India the scholars should seek a full briefing from the Indian Diplomatic Mission in their country about living conditions in India/the details of scholarship/the type and duration of the course to which he/she is admitted. Scholars should inform the Indian Embassy/High Commission of their travel schedule well in advance so that ICCR can make reception and other arrangements for them.

12) Scholars are advised to carry some money to meet some incidental expenditure on arrival.
13) All intending candidates should in their own interest obtain a certificate that they are free from AIDS prior to their departure for India. Even in India, the applicant would have to go for AIDS test before the admission is finally given to overseas scholars. In case any of the nominees is found to be HIV positive in India the scholar will be repatriated immediately and the Council would not bear any expenses on this account.
14) The scholars who are awarded scholarships should bring with them all documents relating to their qualifications in original for verification by the respective college/university at the time of admissions.
