Is five months enough time to get my passport for the January intake?

Yes, five months is more than enough time to get your passport for the January intake.
Current processing for a fresh Indian passport typically takes about 30 working days, plus time for police verification. Most applicants receive their passports within this period, so you should have your passport well before university deadlines.
If you have specific circumstances or need urgent processing, discuss this with your LeapScholar counsellor.
