Dear Student,

Usually, for admission or admission-related processes, the Transfer Certificate (TC) is required to prove that you have left your previous college. However, if you do not have a TC but have a migration certificate, which also shows that you migrated from one university or college to another, some universities may accept this as a substitute.

However, for more details, please share the details of the college that you are willing to take admission to.
