Annamalai University, one of the largest unitary, teaching, and residential
Universities in Southern Asia, was established and incorporated in the year 1929
as per the Annamalai University Act 1928 (Tamil Nadu Act 1 of 1929). Now, the
Annamalai University Act, 1928 has been repealed and replaced by the Annamalai

Located in a rural setting in coastal district of Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu, the
University has played a pivotal role in providing access to higher education to
thousands of youth from economically and socially disadvantaged classes. In this
respect, this university’s service to the nation is tremendous.
In past 85 years the University has grown into a premier institution of higher
learning and research. This is evident from the reports of Ministry of Science and
Technology (“Measures of Performance of Universities in India: An analysis of the
Publication Output in Science and Technology” published by CSIR – National
Institute of Science Technology and Development Studies, New Delhi – 2011, p.102)

6. MODE OF SELECTION
(a) ADMISSION TO GENERAL CATEGORY
(i) General
The selection of candidates will be based on the marks obtained in the
prescribed subjects reduced to 200 (Mathematics - 100, Physics + Chemistry - 100)
 11

in the qualifying examination.

(ii) Normalisation of Marks and Inter-se Merit
Tamil Nadu Acts No. 3 of 2007, dt: 05.03.2007 and G.O. (Ms) No. 77 HE (J2)
Dept, dt: 05.04.2007, the marks obtained by the students in the relevant subjects
in the qualifying examination conducted by various Boards or Authority shall be
equated with the marks obtained by the students in the same subjects in the
qualifying examination conducted by the State Board of Tamil Nadu by adopting
the method of normalisation.
Illustration: If the highest mark secured by the student of State Board of Tamil
Nadu in Physics is 100 and the highest marks secured by a student of any other
Board in the same subject is 90, both the highest marks will be considered to be
equal to 100. If a student of the other Board secures 60 marks in Physics when the
first mark in Physics in the same Board is 90, 60 marks will be considered to be
equal to 66.66 marks as arrived below.
100  60
 66.66
90
After normalisation of marks in the relevant subjects in the qualifying
examination conducted by different Boards, the qualified students shall be merged
into a common merit list.
In the case of candidates who have qualified from National Boards such as
CBSE, ISCE etc. the highest mark obtained in the relevant subject by the
candidates at the National Level alone will be taken into consideration for
normalization.
The Other Boards will be requested to furnish the maximum marks scored in
the relevant subjects. In case, such marks are not available before the preparation
of rank, the maximum marks scored in that Board will be considered as 100%.
For minimum eligibility, normalized marks will be considered.
A merit list will be prepared based on the total marks of 200. In cases where
more than one candidate have got the same marks in the common merit list, the
inter-se merit among such candidates shall be determined in the order of priority as
specified below.
(1) Percentage of marks in Mathematics
(2) Percentage of marks in Physics
(3) Percentage of marks in the fourth optional subject
(4) Date of Birth (elder will be given preference)
(5) Random number assigned (higher value will be given preference).
The overall rank and community wise rank lists will be published on the website
of Annamalai University http://www.annamalaiuniversity.ac.in. No separate
announcement will be made in the Newspapers. The candidates will also be informed
of their rank individually by post through the counselling call letter.
