Reviewed on (Enrolled 2023)

Admission:

As the name suggests, the EFL University focuses entirely on the study of English and foreign languages(asian, european, etc.), so my preference for this University is supported by the fact that the courses and syllabus of study allows me to conduct in-depth learning of whichever course I am admitted into (be it foreign language, literature, language teaching, Linguistics, etc). Sure, other colleges also have well established departments but I just feel like English learning is broader and more enjoyable at EFLU considering it’s prestige. Apart from EFLU, i applied to DU, NEHU, JNU, Pondicherry Uni, Mount Carmel, Madras University, Ambedkar University Delhi, and Loyola College, Chennai. Out of these i was short listed to Pondicherry University and DU. I had to write entrance exams/online interviews for Mount Carmel, Madras Uni and Loyola. However, I did not proceed with those interviews because EFLU amnounced their shortlisted candidates earlier on. Admission process: For admission, one must appear the CUET according to the requirements of the course you are interested to apply to. After which you apply through an online application posted in the university website with your CUET score. Candidates will be shortlisted on the basis of CUET score plus on merit basis. The cutoff score for General category might be around 250+ but it depends on that year’s general performance score. Minorities may get through with a score within 80-200.
