Engineering admission in Pune for 2026 follows DTE Maharashtra CAP rounds. CAP Round 1 allotment: July 2026. CAP Round 2: August 2026. Direct/Management quota admission: August–September 2026. After September, seats are rarely available. Do not wait until the last minute — confirm your admission by August to avoid missing out.
SNAP 2026 registration typically opens in August 2026 at snaptest.org. The exam is conducted 3 times in December (Dec 6, 13, and 20, 2026). SNAP registration closes by November 2026. Fee: ₹1,750 per attempt. Register early — SIBM Pune, SCMHRD Pune, and SCIT Pune all require SNAP score for admission.
CAT 2026 is scheduled for November 23, 2026. Registration opens in August 2026 at iimcat.ac.in. CAT is a 2-hour computer-based test with 3 sections: VARC, DILR, and Quantitative Aptitude. While most Pune MBA colleges accept CAT, it is NOT mandatory — MAT, CMAT, and SNAP are also widely accepted.
Yes, to some extent. Some Pune MBA colleges with unfilled seats offer spot admissions or management quota after January 2027. BIMM Pune, Indira Institute, Suryadatta Institute, and IIMM Pune often have seats available through February–March. However, popular programs at SIBM, SCMHRD, and MIT-SOM fill up by January. Don't delay if you have a SNAP/CMAT score.
