Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) All India Entrance Examination for Admission (ICAR AIEEA) is taken by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) New Delhi for admission to Bachelor Degree and Master Degree. This examination does not include admission to Bachelor degree programmes in Veterinary Sciences. It provides admission to Master degree programmes in Veterinary Sciences.

So for Master degree programmes in Veterinary Sciences one need to appear in ICAR AIEEA PG Entrance Test
