NAAC accreditation

| Name on the NAAC list | KALASALINGAM ACADEMY OF RESEARCH AND EDUCATION |
|---|---|
| AISHE code | U-0458 |
| Grade | A++ |
| CGPA | 3.51 |
| Cycle | 3 |
| Date of declaration | 14 February 2024 |
A NAAC grade is not permanent. It is awarded for a fixed term and has to be renewed, so the date of declaration above is the figure a family paying several years of fees actually needs, and it is the one a brochure rarely carries. We print the record as NAAC states it and draw no conclusion from it. If the institution holds a more recent record, it can write to us and we will update this page.

If anybody promises you a seat, the promise has to fit inside those numbers.
