AME Exam Registration (SOACET): Step-by-Step Process, Fees and Documents

AME exam registration is the first step towards admission in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME), B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering or the integrated program at the School of Aeronautics. The entrance exam is SOACET (School of Aeronautics Common Entrance Test).

 

This page explains the registration process in simple steps, along with the fee, the details you will need and the mistakes students commonly make. Dates and rules can change from year to year, so always check the latest details on the official website before you apply.

What Is AME Exam Registration?

Registration means filling in the SOACET application form and paying the fee, so that you get a registration number and can appear for the entrance test. SOACET is the official entrance exam used by the School of Aeronautics, Neemrana for admission into AME, B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering and the Integrated program. Without a valid registration, you will not receive an admit card.

Who Can Register?

Eligibility rules are given in the official notice, and our AME Eligibility page covers them in detail. In short, the institute mentions 10+2 or equivalent with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. Check the notice for age, marks and any medical requirements for AME before paying the fee.

AME Exam Registration Fee

ItemDetails
Registration feeRs. 1,000
RefundNot refundable
TransferNot transferable
AdjustmentNot adjustable for a future SOACET

The institute states that the Rs. 1,000 fee is neither refundable nor transferable nor adjustable for a future SOACET. Make sure you are eligible and sure about your decision before you pay.

Educational Qualification

You can apply either online or offline, according to the institute’s own page.

Online Registration

  1. Open the official website. The institute’s admission page says the form can be filled online through its official websites (soaneemrana.org / ameadmission.org). Also check soacet.org as per the latest notice.
  2. Open the SOACET application form and choose your course or program.
  3. Fill in your basic details carefully: name, date of birth, contact details and academic information.
  4. Upload your photo and signature. The photo and signature must be in jpg format, up to a maximum of 500 KB.
  5. Pay the registration fee of Rs. 1,000 through the payment options shown on the form.
  6. Submit the form and save or print the confirmation.
  7. Keep your registration number and payment receipt safe. The institute advises candidates to keep both for future use.

 

The institute’s earlier SOACET page also noted that after filling the form online, there is no need to send any documents to the institute. Check whether this still applies in the current notice.

Offline Registration

An offline option is also mentioned on the official page:

 

  1. Get the application form from the institute (corporate office) or download it from the website.
  2. Fill it in carefully and attach what the notice asks for.
  3. Pay the fee as instructed. The institute’s page mentions a demand draft (DD) of Rs. 1,000 in favour of School of Aeronautics, payable at New Delhi.
  4. Submit the form as the notice directs.
  5. After the form is received at the corporate office, the candidate gets a registration number by SMS and email.
  6. Keep your registration number and DD details for future use.

 

Payment methods and offline rules can change, so confirm them in the current notice before using a demand draft.
