Latest Applications Open 2024:

The Symbiosis National Aptitude Test (SNAP), conducted by Symbiosis International University (SIU), is a national-level, computer-based exam designed for admission to MBA programs. Since its inception in 2007, SNAP has gained recognition for its rigorous nature and 60-minute duration, featuring multiple-choice questions spread across four sections. While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact number of institutions under SIU, it is estimated that around 19 institutes are offering MCA programs to aspiring students.

To apply for an MBA program at any of the institutes under SIU, candidates must not only register for the SNAP Test but also separately register for and pay the registration fee for their chosen MBA program(s) before the respective deadlines. This fee must be paid exclusively through the SNAP website (snaptest.org).

The registration fee for each MBA program is INR 1000, with additional government taxes applicable as necessary. If a candidate wishes to apply to multiple programs, they must pay an extra INR 1000 for each additional program, plus any applicable government taxes.
