- Question: it's not stated in the article that it's for-profit, and I'm not able to easily find information to confirm that. Are we sure that it's for-profit? I'm seeing that the website of it's Lucknow campus claims that the school is non-profit, writing that
...the SMS Society, a philanthropic social organization, registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, established an autonomous nonprofit educational center, School of Management Sciences (SMS), in Varanasi avowed with a mission of imparting highly innovative management, computer and other technical education in the eastern part of India...
. As a result, I'm not so sure that this educational institution ineligible for WP:NSCHOOL. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 22:49, 7 October 2021 (UTC)- Whether or not that's true (and I noticed this after re-reading the guideline after I opened this, actually) WP:NSCHOOL seems to indicate that even a nonprofit institution should satisfy at least one of GNG or ORG, which I am still having trouble finding sources for. If we do consider it to be nonprofit, it will still need better sources. ASUKITE 23:55, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
