SNAP 2025 Result Announcement Anticipated in Early January 2026

The Symbiosis International (Deemed) University (SIU) is set to announce the SNAP 2025 https://www.shiksha.com/news/mba-snap-2025-result-on-this-date-check-expected-cutoff-for-siu-institutes-blogId-216852results on January 9, 2026. Following the conclusion of the three test slots in December, thousands of management aspirants are now shifting their focus toward scorecards and subsequent shortlisting. The result will be available on the official portal, serving as the primary gateway to 16 constituent institutes under the Symbiosis umbrella.

Expected Cutoffs for Top Symbiosis Institutes

Shortlisting for the 2026 admission cycle will be based on the overall percentile achieved in the SNAP test. While each institute releases its own specific cutoff, historical data suggests that premier colleges like SIBM Pune maintain high benchmarks.

• SIBM Pune: Expected to remain the most competitive with a cutoff ranging between 97–98.5 percentile.
• SCMHRD Pune: Likely to shortlist candidates within the 95–97 percentile bracket.
• SIIB & SIBM Bengaluru: Generally require a percentile of 90–92 for their flagship programs.
• Tier-2 SIU Institutes: Colleges such as SIOM Nashik and SITM Pune often accept scores in the 80–87 percentile range.

Post-Result Admission Timeline and Next Steps

Once the results are declared, the admission process moves into the second phase, known as the personality assessment round. Unlike previous years, many institutes have notably scrapped the Writing Ability Test (WAT) to focus more on interactive evaluation.

• Shortlist Declaration: Most institutes will release their individual lists of shortlisted candidates by the third week of January 2026.
• GE-PI Rounds: The Group Exercise (GE) and Personal Interaction (PI) sessions are tentatively scheduled for February and March 2026.
• Weightage Allocation: The final merit list is calculated using a 50:50 ratio—50% weightage for the scaled SNAP score and 50% for the GE-PI performance.

Aspirants are advised to regularly monitor the official website, snaptest.org, to download their scorecards immediately upon release and begin preparing their portfolios for the interaction rounds.
