JEE

Yes, IPU issues distinct counselling schedules for:

• IPU CET-based programmes
• JEE/NEET/NATA/CLAT-based programmes

Candidates must refer to the official website ipu.admissions.nic.in, and check the programme-wise counselling notices to ensure they don't miss any important dates relevant to their chosen course.

Choosing JNTU Hyderabad CSE is best in my opinion because it is in a good city, whereas NIT Andhra Pradesh is in a village.

JNTUH is well established, whereas NIT Andhra Pradesh is still in the process

Even the fee will be higher for NIT Andhra Pradesh than JNTUH.

With a JEE Main rank of 90k one can count on colleges like J.C. Bose University (YMCA), Faridabad, DCRUST, Murthal, Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology (Delhi) through JOSAA/State counselling that are located in Haryana, Gurugram or Noida. These government/semi-government colleges will have CSE at a very low fee (?40K–?80K/year). You should also check out HSTES counselling in Haryana, which will consider every low fee option under these schemes where your fees will be extremely low due to OBC/EWS quotas.

With 37 percentile in JEE Mains and around 80700 rank, as a SC category student it will be very hard to get a seat in good government engineering colleges, because even with reservation the cut off is usually higher. But still you can try in some of the less popular branches or in newly opened government colleges where competition is less. Your 59% in HSC is enough for eligibility, so you can also look for state level counseling and some private colleges as backup.

Yes, it is possible to get into Sapthagiri NPS University's B.Tech programme without a JEE score. Sapthagiri NPS University accepts scores from other entrance exams like COMEDK UGET and the Karnataka CET for B.Tech admissions, in addition to JEE Main. 

If the candidate wishes to enrol in the BTech courses offered by NIELIT Patna, then JEE is a compulsory entrance exam. The admissions into BTech courses at NIELIT Patna are decided by the JoSAA which takes into account the JEE Mains score obtained by a candidate. Thus, all candidates who are interested in joining BTech courses offered NIELIT Patna are advised to keep track of the JEE timeline.

With a CRL rank of 335,752 in JEE Mains, it's unlikely to get CSE in top government colleges in Delhi NCR. But you can still get CSE or related branches in private colleges.
