SNAP 2026 Application Process

Full page

The Symbiosis National Aptitude Test (SNAP) 2026 application process is conducted online through the official SNAP website. Candidates seeking admission to MBA programmes offered by Symbiosis International (Deemed University) must register for the entrance test, pay the applicable test fee and separately select the MBA programmes they wish to apply for.

The last date for SNAP 2026 registration and test fee payment is November 25, 2026. Candidates should complete their applications early and verify all details before submission.

Steps to Apply for SNAP 2026

Step 1: Visit the Official SNAP Website

Open the official website at www.snaptest.org and select the registration option. Read the instructions and accept the terms and conditions to proceed.

Step 2: Fill in the Registration Form

Enter the required personal and contact details, including your name, mobile number and email address. Make sure all information matches your official records.

Applicants must provide a valid and unique email address and mobile number for communications throughout the admission process.

Step 3: Verify Your Details Through OTP

Verify the mobile number or email address using the OTP sent during registration. After successful registration, candidates receive their SNAP ID and password, which should be kept safe for future login and communication.

Step 4: Upload Your Photograph

Upload a recent scanned colour passport-size photograph as instructed on the application portal. The official instructions state that the photograph should not be more than six months old.

Ensure the uploaded image meets the portal's requirements before proceeding.

Step 5: Choose Your SNAP Test Attempt(s)

SNAP 2026 is scheduled on three dates: December 13, December 19 and December 26, 2026. Candidates may register for up to three tests, subject to the applicable registration and fee requirements.

Select the test date or dates carefully. When a candidate takes more than one test, the higher score is used for the final percentile calculation, with no normalisation across attempts.

Step 6: Pay the SNAP Test Registration Fee

Pay the test registration fee of ₹2,550 per test, plus applicable government taxes, using the payment options available on the official portal.

Candidates registering for multiple test attempts must pay the applicable fee for each selected attempt.

Step 7: Select MBA Programmes and Pay the Programme Fee

Choose each Symbiosis MBA programme and institute you wish to apply to. A separate programme registration fee of ₹1,000 per programme, plus applicable government taxes, is payable in addition to the SNAP test fee.

Paying only the entrance test fee does not complete your application for any individual MBA programme. Programme deadlines can vary, so check the relevant institute's website and complete the required registration before its closing date.

Step 8: Check the Registration Confirmation

After payment, check the portal and your registered email for confirmation. Save your SNAP ID, payment receipts and application details for future reference.

If you do not receive a confirmation email within 24 hours, check your spam or junk folder and use the official portal's query facility if necessary.

SNAP 2026 Payment Methods

The official SNAP registration instructions list the following payment methods:

  • Billdesk Payment Gateway: Pay through the payment facility available on the registration portal.

  • Easebuzz Payment Gateway: Complete payment through the available online payment option.

  • Demand Draft (DD): Candidates choosing this option must follow the official instructions for preparing and submitting the draft.

For payment through Demand Draft, the official instructions specify a draft in favour of “Symbiosis Test Secretariat”, payable at Pune. The prescribed payment advice form and draft must reach the Symbiosis Test Secretariat by 3:00 PM on November 25, 2026. Candidates choosing this method should consult the official registration page for the complete submission procedure and address.

Is the SNAP Test Fee Separate from the Programme Fee?

Yes. The SNAP entrance test fee and MBA programme registration fee are separate charges.

Paying ₹2,550 for a SNAP test does not automatically register a candidate for all MBA programmes. Applicants must select their preferred programmes and pay ₹1,000 for each programme, in addition to the test fee. Different programmes may have different closing dates for programme registration.

For this reason, candidates should review the institute and programme options carefully before completing payment.

SNAP 2026 Refund Policy

The official SNAP 2026 registration instructions state that both the entrance test registration fee and the programme registration fee are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Candidates should therefore verify their registration details, test selections and preferred MBA programmes before making payment. Keep a copy of the payment confirmation for future reference.

SNAP 2026 Last Date for Fee Payment

The last date for SNAP 2026 registration and test fee payment is November 25, 2026. Applicants must also pay the programme registration fee before the deadline applicable to each selected MBA programme.

Candidates are advised to complete the process in advance rather than waiting until the final day. Always check the official portal for the latest payment instructions and deadline updates.
