Admission:

Eligibility - A valid score in KMAT (2022 cut-off was somewhere around 360), CMAT (above 80 Percentile would be good), CAT (same as CMAT). It is important that you also perform well in your Group Discussion and Personal Interview Session in order secure admission to SMS, and CUSAT; as high marks in your qualifying exams alone wouldn't grab you a seat. The application form and related details can be found on the official site of the college - https://sms.cusat.ac.in/. Be alert about the application form, as SMS is one of the colleges that conclude their application received process much earlier. So always try to check the official site of the college as well as Cochin University -https://admissions.cusat.ac.in/ from the date of application invitation for the KMAT exam. The applications for 2022 were opened in March and the application fee was 1100 INR for general candidates. https://admissions.cusat.ac.in/uploads/Prospectus2022.pdf - Check the link for information on 2022 admission.
