Accreditation Red Flag

This program is not AICTE-approved or UGC-recognized. For pharmacy degrees, PCI approval is what actually matters—verify it independently on the official PCI registry before you pay any fees.

The verdict

Worth considering

You save a full year with lateral entry, the NIRF #94 rank adds some credibility, and pharma recruiters do visit campus. But the missing AICTE/UGC recognition, no scholarship support, and low data transparency mean you must independently verify PCI approval, visit the campus, and speak to current students before committing.
