With an 82 percentile in JEE Mains, direct admission to the B.Tech in Computer Science at Shiv Nadar University (SNU) is unlikely. SNU does not offer direct admissions; candidates must qualify through either JEE Main scores or the Shiv Nadar University Scholastic Aptitude Test (SNUSAT) and Academic Proficiency Test (APT).
In most popular specializations, including Computer Science, the cutoff goes above 90 percentile. Your score would suffice the minimum eligibility criteria, but might not be good enough to get into competitive programs such as Computer Science in SNU. Apply via SNUSAT or improve your chances through strong academic credentials.
