In order to get into NIPER 's for Masters/Ph. D, the candidate has to qualify GPAT/ GATE and then attempt NIPER exam . If the candidate cracks both the exams with good rank it's easy to get into NIPER. However cutoff varies from year to year. For Ph. D, there is interview. You can find the application forms, fees and application dates at respective websites. GPAT is conducted by NTA. So check in NTA's website , by typing GPAT. NTA ( For example). NIPER has 7 campuses all over India. In 2023 NIPER exam has been conducted by NIPER Guwahati. Next year it is by other NIPER. If you are a reservation student, there is bit relaxation in terms of college fee. However the entrance exams cutoff varies for each category. GPAT is not very hard or very easy. It's more of concept based exam. However it's quite simple if you focus on the options given for each question. NIPER exam- moderate in difficulty has general knowledge questions , few aptitude questions along with pharmacy related ones.
