SNAP Registration 2026 Started: Apply Online from Today
Candidates can complete the SNAP 2026 registration online and separately apply for the Symbiosis MBA programmes they want to be considered for.
The SNAP application process has two parts:
- Register for the SNAP test and pay the test registration fee.
- Register for the preferred MBA programme or programmes and pay the programme registration fee separately for each one.
Paying only the SNAP test fee does not make a candidate eligible for shortlisting for a particular programme. Candidates must also pay the programme registration fee for every programme they want to apply to.

SNAP Registration Deadline 2026: November 25
The SNAP registration last date is November 25, 2026. Candidates should not wait until the final day to complete the application because the process includes both test registration and programme registration.
The key financial point is also important: selecting multiple tests means paying the ₹2,550 test fee for each test, while every selected MBA programme requires a separate ₹1,000 programme registration fee.
SNAP 2026 Preparation: What Should Candidates Do Now?
With the SNAP 2026 registration window opening on August 21, candidates have to manage two things together: completing the application correctly and starting preparation for the revised exam structure.
The addition of Ethics, Morality and Values means candidates should not prepare only around the traditional areas. This section should be included in the preparation schedule from the beginning.
Candidates planning to take all three SNAP attempts can also use the first test to understand their performance and work on weak areas before the subsequent attempts.
Conclusion
SNAP registration is now open from August 21 to November 25, 2026. This gives candidates a defined window to complete the test and programme applications.
The fee has increased to ₹2,550 per test, the programme fee remains ₹1,000, and candidates can take up to three tests, with the highest score used for the final percentile.
For candidates targeting SNAP 2026, the next priority should be preparation for the revised exam, especially the newly introduced Ethics, Morality and Values section.
