The Apollo University (TAU), Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh, established in November 2021, is a State Private University funded by the Apollo Hospitals Group. It is officially recognised under the Andhra Pradesh Private Universities Act and notified under Section 2(f) of the UGC regulation and comprises five dynamic schools. The campus spans the Apollo Knowledge City, complete with smart classrooms, an expansive library, advanced laboratories, sports facilities, separate hostels, a health clinic, cafeteria, and cultural hub Vividha. In June 2024, TAU signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the University of Leicester, UK, to launch pathway programs that enable students to study at The Apollo, India, for two years and the final year in the UK, earning a globally recognised degree.
As a Private University backed by Apollo’s healthcare legacy, TAU emphasises experiential learning, with access to an 800-bed district hospital, simulation labs, semester-long internships, Microsoft Azure tools, NASSCOM training modules, and global collaboration with Institutions such as Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Monash, and Women’s Hospital, UNSW and ESIGELEC. Additionally, the option to study at the University of Leicester, UK, brings world-class research intensity and academic excellence to the joint programs. TAU’s vision emphasises producing life and career-ready graduates through a multidisciplinary, research-driven approach, preparing them to lead in Healthcare, Technology, Management and Social Impact sectors.

Intake timelines vary depending on the type of programme. Research-based programmes often accept applications on a rolling basis throughout the year, providing greater flexibility for applicants. In contrast, taught programmes usually follow fixed application deadlines aligned with academic semesters.
Prospective students are encouraged to carefully review course-specific entry requirements and submission deadlines and apply as early as possible. Many popular and high-demand programmes receive a large volume of applications and may close once available seats are filled, even before the official deadline.
The university offers a diverse and comprehensive portfolio of academic programmes across a wide range of disciplines, with hundreds of undergraduate and postgraduate courses available to students. Its academic structure is organised into multiple schools and faculties spanning Arts, Law, Social Sciences, Medicine, Health Sciences, Science, Engineering, and Technology, ensuring strong subject expertise along with interdisciplinary learning opportunities.

Scholarships offered by the University of Bristol for international students are credited directly toward tuition fees once the student has completed the registration process. For awards that span multiple years, the scholarship amount is applied annually, provided the student progresses successfully to the next stage of their program. Students are eligible to hold only one scholarship or fee discount at a time; if selected for more than one, the highest-value award is automatically applied.
Indian students can explore University of Bristol scholarship opportunities using the university’s Student Funding Search Tool, which lists all available funding options. Among these is the Zutshi-Smith Scholarship, a prestigious award that fully covers the cost of a PhD program for an Indian student.
