Admission Session (Profile Building for a University)

The application process at Ashoka University is about profile building. The required details often leave students with queries. 

In this session, we will be covering The Undergraduate Programme at Ashoka University (the majors and minors offered) followed by the details that you need to keep in mind while filling out applications and putting together a profile for a university. The other components of the application process i.e. interview, personal essays and documents will also be discussed. 

Faculty Workshops

An Ashoka faculty will conduct an interactive session about a specific topic finalized by the professor as well as the school. 

**A minimum of 30-50 student registrations are required for this workshop.

Workshops on Gender, Sexuality, Law, and Diversity

With the increased access to popular culture and social media, young people are constantly consuming content that pushes them to think about consent and relationships. And one of the biggest restrictions they face is a lack of suitable spaces to express themselves frankly.

This workshop presents and interrogates basic questions around gender and gender-based discrimination. It thinks about the individual’s experience of their gender and how that is navigated. We look at gender roles in popular media in an attempt to build our critical faculties and understand the functioning of the world in which we live. The session covers issues of gendered experience, LGBTQIA+ identities, societal norms, consent, and bullying.

Workshops with Office of Learning Support (OLS)/for Special Education Needs (SEN) Students

With the help of Ashoka’s Office of Learning Support (OLS) this session will cover how Special Education Needs students can thrive at University Level. 

The Office of Learning Support at Ashoka University was set up in 2016. It supports students with  Learning Disabilities. Over the last few years, the Office has supported students with visual impairment, hearing impairment, ASD, ADD/ADHD, Cerebral Palsy along with various specific learning disabilities.

Creative Writing Workshops

The workshops address the most fundamental aspects of critical thinking and skills required for writing and communication. These are hands-on workshops where students have the opportunity to create a piece of writing of their own and get feedback from our reps. The session also gives students the space to interact with some of the most prominent names in the world of writing.

Feel free to reach out to our counselors for further details.
