Colleges in Vellore

Admission to VIT is conducted on a merit basis through it's own online entrance exam, called the Vellore Institute of Technology Engineering Entrance Examination VITEEE and through management quota also. they introduced categories depends on your cut-off marks. Say, cut-off 15000 rank- 1st category youshould pursue cse and it branch and 2nd category like that. So fee varies for each category. They introduced CAL system and increased their standard. The answer is yes, it is little hard than before but if you can get under 90000 rank in VIT entrance exam u can get admission in VIT in 6TH category
But if u r interested in cse or any other branch you should pay more in any category but condition is that your vitee rankshould be less than 90000. Various other branches are there like cs,it,ece,mechanical etc. but according to me take cse should be first option then it than ece or whatever you like you can take that branch.

Hi Swapnil,
VIT mechanical engineering department is one of the very good departments. As far as placements are concerned I would like to share an experience of my roommates. Two years back, two M.Tech. 2nd year students were my roommates. I remember that they had sat for an interview of at least 5-6 companies in front of me. Also, there were some more companies for which their profile wasn't suitable.
So, VIT gets many companies for M.Tech students as well. Many students get placed. As I'm from chemical engineering department, I can not tell you the exact number of placed students, but yes - placements are not so bad (as compared to other mtech people)!

Normal M.Tech programme selection is done either directly through GATE or through initial GATE selection and further written test and interview. It is also called course programme, where students will be taking 12 to 14 courses (depends on the dept) to complete their course requirement, it is term-limited, you will have to complete within two years. Good for a job, also good for further studies, but you don't specialize much compared to M.Tech (research). Where students will be selected from initial GATE screening and the further research interview. M.Tech research is not term-limited, students are expected to complete within two to three years.
