Overview

This manual explains, step by step, how an institution can apply for affiliation through the National Affiliation & Academic Partnership Portal. It is intended for administrators and authorized representatives who are preparing to submit a fresh application or track one already in progress.

Before you begin, keep scanned copies of your institution's registration certificate, land and building documents, faculty records, and financial statements ready, as these will be required during the upload stage.

Step-by-Step Application Process

• Create a portal account using your institution's official email address
• Verify your account through the confirmation link sent to your registered email
• Log in and begin your application on the Registration page
• Fill in institute details including name, address, governing body, and course offerings
• Upload required documents in the specified formats and size limits
• Review the completed form summary before final submission
• Track application status from your applicant dashboard
• Respond promptly to any clarification requests raised by the review team
• Receive approval intimation and download the affiliation certificate

Tips for a Smooth Application

• Double-check institute name and address for consistency across all documents
• Upload clear, legible scans rather than photographs of documents
• Keep a single authorized contact person for all portal communication
• Save your application periodically to avoid loss of entered data
• Refer to the Infrastructure Norms and Academic Policies pages before applying
