INI CET Application Process:

The application mode for INI-CET is made online. Candidates seeking registration must visit the online portal at www.aiimsexams.org to know the complete details regarding the same.

The application process involves 3 basic steps, as follows:

1. Basic Registration
2. Generation of Registration Unique Code (RUC)
3. Final Registration for INI-CET

Basic Registration is a one-time procedure for students to take part in postgraduate courses. It consists of the initial registration of the applicant with the IT system for registration ID and password generation. The applicant is then required to complete the simple registration with the requisite personal data and to upload the images (photo, sign, the impression of the left thumb). Basic registration (information) is approved or refused based on the quality and format of the images submitted by the applicants.

For the Generation of the Registration Unique Code (RUC), an agreed standard registration (basic details including photographic images, signature, and thumb impression) is a prerequisite. A code to indicate the applicant’s wish to apply for INI-CET, in Jan 2024, must be produced. The code is unique to each examination instance and is required for INI-CET, January 2024, to be created anew. The same cannot be used for INI-CET if the applicant has previously produced a code for earlier examinations.

Accepted basic registration (basic details including photographic images, signature, and thumb impression) is a prerequisite for code generation and INI-CET implementation, in Jan 2024. Once a code has been created for INI-CET, Jan 2024, the applicant is expected to proceed to the Final Registration page to apply for INI-CET, Jan 2024. To be able to log in to complete the application form, a valid registration ID, password, and code (RUC) is required for INI-CET, Jan 2024. The applicant must ensure that all procedures are taken on or before the due date and time of the application form.
