BITS Pilani - Birla Institute of Technology and Science

Hello Suman,
Firstly, admission is available only if you have passed your 12th from Bihar. Information about opening and closing ranks of OBC is not available. However, it's learnt that in some cases it was higher than general category. For general category, it varies from 6000 to 35000.

Yes. You can go through the BITSAT.

Dear Suman,
It is typical to get direct admission but some management seats are filled directly. For admission procedure, you may go through this link:

Marks eligibility criteria at BITS is as follows: "The candidate should have obtained a minimum of aggregate 75% marks in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics subjects (if he/she has taken Mathematics in BITSAT) or a minimum of aggregate 75% marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology subjects (if he/she has taken Biology in BITSAT) in 12th class examination, with at least 60% marks in each of the Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics / Biology subjects". Therefore if you do not get 75% marks in PCM you will not be eligible for seeking admission in any of BITS University colleges.

Hello Sandesh,
Students who are doing M.Tech are given stipend during the study period. Both these institutions give scholarships also but normally for advertising purpose rather than any meaningful programme. Don't count on it.

BITS is an autonomous UGC approved university. All degrees awarded by University even by WILP are valid for seeking admission in higher education in India and abroad. As you have done a degree by distance learning you may get lesser preference or weightage in GDPI because of general mindset about such degrees.

Hello Mani,
You have reasonable marks in JEE Mains and BITs entrance. Unfortunately, score in BITs is not taken by another institute. For these you have to apply using JEE Mains score only.

You may refer to the following link for details about the fee structure in BITS Pilani:

Yes, you can. But the procedure is pretty cumbersome. First of all, the only genuine reason is entertained (like clashing with another exam).You'll have to send in your reason to change the date, along with necessary documents via post (the exact procedure must be given somewhere on bitsadmission.com, if not contact BITS people).
Also, you don't get to choose your new slot, they'll give you the slot near the end dates of exam and add to that, you have to come all the way to the location to take the exam, you don't get the centre of your choice as well.
