Lateral entry

Lateral entry is difficult to obtain in foreign universities; you have to check with the universities directly. It will be more challenging in Canada, since you have a three-year degree, whereas they don't accept three-year degree, but accept four years. You will be accepted only if all credit point requirements are met.

If you have completed your Diploma, then you are eligible for admission in the second year in any branch. Many of the regular colleges offer distance B.Tech with a minimal fee. You need to find a good college for your degree.

Yes, you are eligible for Bachelor in Optometry lateral entry in Thiruvalluvar University.

Hello,

I went through the webpage of GITAM University but I could not find any reference for lateral admission. It gives detailed information about the process of admission for engineering courses in the first year based on the 12th results and of course the entrance test conducted by the University. I am attaching a link that will give you all the required information about this university. If you can find any information in this about lateral admission I will be very happy to receive it.

Hello Rahul,
Lateral entry is for diploma students not for engineering students. So, you cannot switch the university. However, I will suggest you to continue with the same college only, as college doesn't matter its you who make the difference.
All the best.

What happened in this is if you are having a Diploma degree and want to go for graduation, then you can go for B.Tech (lateral entry) procedure in which you will get admission in B.Tech and supposed to study from 2nd year of B.Tech rather than starting from first year. So, this is the benefit for Diploma holders who want to go for B.Tech as a graduation.
