TWINNING / TRANSFER PROGRAMS
Twinning / Transfer programs allow Indian institutions to offer graduate and post-graduate programs which will have their regular curricula. The existing curricula may be supplemented by additional curricula of the foreign universities if desired by Indian institutions. Through twinning / transfer programs, Indian students will be able to earn several credits during the course of their normal study in Indian institutions. Students will have the opportunity either to complete their studies in India or to transfer their credits to the foreign universities at any time after completing at least one year of their studies in Indian institutions. Students, who opt for transfer, can then finish their degree programs by completing the remainder of credits in residence at the foreign universities.
Twinning / Transfer programs are "win-win" situations for all concerned parties. The foreign universities will receive well-prepared students who have been instructed entirely in English and are ready to begin their major sequences. Indian institutions are strengthened by access to the latest in foreign curricular developments. Foreign-bound Indian students save substantial cost of studying abroad. Further, students will have wide range of subjects to choose from in the foreign universities, apart from the opportunity to learn in two different cultural environments, and thus becoming well-rounded learners.
Under twinning / transfer programs, students who complete at least one year of graduate program (10+2+1) in Indian institutions will be eligible for admission as transfer students to graduate programs in the foreign universities. Students who complete second year (10+2+2) or third year (10+2+3) of graduate program may also transfer to graduate programs in the foreign universities and complete the remainder of the program. TOEFL and SAT will be required for admission to the foreign universities. Students who complete the first year of post-graduate program in Indian institutions will be eligible for admission to post-graduate degree programs of the foreign universities. TOEFL / IELTS and GRE / GMAT will be required for admission to post-graduate programs in foreign universities. The number of credits to be waived for students admitted on transfer basis will be at the discretion of the foreign universities. In case, any foreign university does not have its own credential evaluation mechanism, the credential evaluation report of World Educational Services (WES), New York, will form the basis for waiver of credits.
Students enrolling in the graduate and post-graduate programs in the foreign universities will be given degrees and diplomas by the foreign universities after successful completion of study. Transfer students will be charged the prevailing tuition by the foreign universities. Students who do not plan to go to the foreign universities and students who have been unable to get foreign visas will complete their program of study in India, would be awarded Indian degrees and diplomas by the Indian institutions concerned.
For twinning / transfer programs, the Indian institutions may invite visiting faculty of the foreign universities. In such cases, Indian institutions will bear expenditure towards travel, room and board of visiting foreign universities.
