Pearl Academy South Campus Admission 2027
Pearl Academy’s published admission process is academy-wide, while Delhi-South is a distinct campus at Lotus Tower, New Friends Colony. For design applicants, the current examination page specifies a General Proficiency Test (GPT) and Design Aptitude Test (DAT), followed by an interview and portfolio showcase; Business applicants take GPT and an interview, with portfolio discussion included in the interview process. Both the written examination and interview are online. Pearl’s currently published dated schedule is for the 2026–27 batch, so applicants planning for 2027–28 should use it as the latest available reference, not as a confirmed next-cycle timetable. Confirm that the chosen programme is running at Delhi-South before paying the non-refundable application charge. Delhi-South campus · entrance examination · important dates
Applying to Pearl Academy
Pearl describes a two-stage application route for its Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes: submit an online or offline application, then take the entrance examination and attend a personal interview. The online form is accessed through the Admissions portal linked from Pearl’s website. Its published instructions ask candidates to register with a valid email address, verify the mobile and email OTP, pay the application charge, complete the form from the confirmation link, submit it, and save a copy. An offline form can be collected and paid for at a Pearl Academy campus. These instructions are published for Pearl Academy generally; the South campus page separately lists Delhi-South as one of its campuses. how to apply · dates and guidelines
Pearl lists a non-refundable application fee of ₹2,000 for Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes and ₹500 for professional certificate courses. This is the application charge, not tuition or a seat-confirmation payment. The academy’s dates page says payment is accepted online by card or net banking and describes the registration and OTP steps before the full application is completed. Keep the payment confirmation and application number; the published process says the follow-up email or SMS contains both and a link to continue the form. If you are applying for Delhi-South, retain written confirmation of the campus and programme on your application or offer documents rather than relying on the broad academy catalogue. dates and guidelines
Eligibility and selection stages
Pearl’s general eligibility page states that applicants to Bachelor’s programmes need a Class 12 pass certificate in any stream. Applicants to Master’s programmes need a Bachelor’s degree or diploma from a recognised university in any stream. Candidates who are appearing for their final qualifying examination may apply provisionally and can receive provisional admission if selected. These are general academy-level criteria; the exact programme page or current application notice should be checked for any additional subject, portfolio, documentation or other programme-specific condition. The public pages reviewed do not publish a South-Campus-specific eligibility variation. how to apply
Selection differs by broad programme family. For Bachelor’s and Master’s Fashion, Interiors, Product and Communication Design programmes, Pearl lists GPT plus DAT, a personal interview and portfolio showcase. The examination page describes 90 minutes for the written tests and 30 minutes for the interview. For the listed Business programmes, Pearl specifies GPT followed by a 30-minute personal interview; it says a portfolio showcase and discussion form part of that interview. The Business GPT is listed as 60 minutes. Pearl’s page says there is no negative marking in its entrance examination. These durations describe the published exam pattern; check the admit card and live candidate portal for the actual slot, mode and instructions for a specific programme. entrance examination
The entrance-examination instructions say applicants can log in for the online written examination between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. on specified dates. The personal-interview slot selection is made available one week before the examination. Pearl says written-test admit cards are published two days before the test and interview admit cards one day before the interview. These are useful planning intervals, but candidates should follow the notices and portal for their own examination window because the page does not fix a single time for every candidate. Pearl’s general application page says both the written test and interview can be taken online from a home computer. entrance examination · how to apply
Latest dated schedule available
Pearl’s important-dates page lists the following dates for applications to B.Des, M.Des, BBA and MBA programmes for the 2026–27 batch:
The portal is labelled Admissions 2027, but the dated table is explicitly headed AY 2026–2027. Do not read “2027” in the portal name as proof that these dates apply to a later academic-year intake. The official page also says candidates appearing in their final examinations can apply provisionally. As dates and examination arrangements can change, check the official schedule before booking travel, making a payment or planning a portfolio submission. important dates
Cutoffs and what to verify
Pearl’s current official admissions pages describe tests, interviews, broad eligibility, timings and a no-negative-marking rule. They do not state a numerical minimum GPT or DAT score, a campus-specific cutoff, or a published score-to-offer formula. The appropriate distinction is between the stated entry requirements and the selection result: meeting the general eligibility criteria allows a candidate to apply, but it does not guarantee selection. A third-party “cutoff” figure without a programme, campus, cycle and official selection-stage definition should not be treated as a Pearl South threshold. Ask the admissions office whether any programme-specific requirement applies to the intended 2027–28 application and follow the candidate portal for current instructions. entrance examination · how to apply
Before submitting, check four items on the live programme and application pages: whether the course is offered at Delhi-South for the target batch; the course-specific eligibility and any portfolio instructions; the current test and interview dates; and the exact fee/refund terms. Pearl’s general pages do not confirm every academy-wide programme at every campus, and the current dated timetable is for 2026–27. These checks are especially important for applicants whose qualifying results are pending, whose course is a certificate rather than a degree, or whose preferred campus is fixed. For an official campus visit, Pearl lists the South address as Lotus Tower, Community Centre, New Friends Colony, New Delhi. Delhi-South campus · plan a visit
