Pune (Maharashtra) [India], September 14: Symbiosis Centre for Information Technology (SCIT), a constituent institute of Symbiosis International (Deemed University) and one of India's premier business schools dedicated exclusively to technology-driven management education, has officially opened applications for its M.B.A. Programmes through the Symbiosis National Aptitude (SNAP) Test 2026. SCIT offers two specialised Programmes for the academic year 2027-28, each admitting students through SNAP 2026.
M.B.A. (Information Technology Business Management) and M.B.A. (Data Sciences & Data Analytics) are open to graduates from any recognised University or Institution of National Importance holding a minimum of 50% marks (45% for SC/ST); final-year students may also apply, subject to meeting the eligibility criteria. Both Programmes are accessible exclusively through the SNAP 2026 admission process.
The SNAP test is a computer-based test (CBT). SNAP Registration Fee is INR 2550 per test (government taxes additional, as applicable), and Programme Registration Fee is INR 1000 per Programme. The registration and payment window for SNAP 2026 began on August 21, 2026 (Friday), and will close on November 25, 2026 (Wednesday).
The test will be held on three dates: December 13 (Sunday), December 19 (Saturday), and December 26 (Saturday), 2026. Candidates may attempt the test up to three times, with the higher score considered for the admission process, with no normalisation applied. SNAP 2026 will be conducted in 79 cities across India. The test consists of objective-type questions, each with four response options. A 25% negative marking will apply for every incorrect answer. Results of the SNAP Test will be declared on January 12, 2027 (Tuesday), after which the admission process will proceed. SNAP 2026 scores will be valid for admission for the academic year 2027-28.

Backed by over two decades of technology-driven management education and the academic legacy of Symbiosis International (Deemed University), which is NAAC A++ accredited, SCIT continues to earn recognition among India's leading management institutions, including a place among India's Top Private Management Institutes.

Students at SCIT have the opportunity to specialise in Systems & Enterprise Consulting, Information Security Management, Digital Transformation, and Data Science & Business Analytics, giving them a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving digital economy. M.B.A. (Data Sciences & Data Analytics) further equips students with advanced analytical competencies, hands-on exposure to AI, Machine Learning, and Big Data tools, and the ability to convert data into actionable business intelligence.
