How to get to the USEFI

  • Test Centers in Bombay, India:
  • In Bombay, the GRE is conducted at two centers, the Sylvan Testing Center at Sakinaka, Andheri & at USEFI, Churchgate.
Sylvan Testing Center, Andheri:
  • How to reach:
  • Follow the Western Express highway until the turn towards the International Airport. Follow that road until you come to the road that leads to Hotel Leela Kempinski. After about a kilometer, you will come to Sakinaka, a bustling crossroad. Take a left. The road leads to a small lane, at the left of which is a restaurant called Hotel Piknik. Immediately after that, there is a small by-lane on the left, follow that. Drive straight inside for a short while, and you will come to a mysterious-looking white building named Marwah House. You are there. USEFI.

Churchgate:
  • How to reach:
  • Exit Churchgate Station from the exit facing Eros cinema, and turn backwards, towards Marine Lines. After the Income Tax building on the right, take a right turn. (There's a famous sugarcane-juice stall at the corner.) At the end of that lane, is the USEFI building. (Currently, it's under heavy repairs & restructuring, so it's easy to spot.)
