Lateral entry

You can get REC College Band. There is no chance of IET and KNIT.

There are number of universities providing the degree programme after Diploma:
Lovely Professional University, Punjab
Jadavpur University
Pondicherry Engineering College
Delhi College of Engineering
PSG College of Technology
If you go for Lovely Professional University, Punjab, you have to go through test and will get scholarship as per the terms. Best thing is that placements and overall grooming which hardly any university provides altogether.

There is no chance in government college at this rank. Because 1 seat in each branch of girls quota makes it very tough to get admission in government college for lateral entry. You have a good chance for a good private college.

As someone told that HBTU and IET Lucknow are the best colleges for lateral entry in Uttar Pradesh let me clear you one thing that these two colleges are government colleges and from last year HBTU is through JEE Mains so I will told you the best private colleges for lateral entry in UPTU :-
1) KIET
2) ABES EC
3) JSS
4) IMS
5) AKG
6) GALGOTIA.

There is a state-level entrance examination for lateral entry which will give you the colleges according to your rank in the respective states. Like LEET, PTU LEET, LPU NEAT Calicut University Lateral Entry.

Yes, lateral entry is given to those who have completed their Diploma courses in various fields. After then those students are eligible to do B.Tech with the same field who can get admission in 2nd year for B.Tech. Diploma holders should fulfill the admission criteria as per the university rules.

Hi Zishan, You should contact Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam Technical University directly for this information. The concerned authorities of the university will be able to guide you better in this regard.

1. HKBK
2. KCCITM
3. GL Bajaj College
I arranged them in terms of Infrastructure, facilities, faculty, placements and also level of education as well.
This is my preference, but all three are good. There is only a slight difference.

Yes, you can apply. But, before applying in any university, check the university admission procedure for MCA. These universities conduct exam for lateral entry for MCA:
1- Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow
2 - Bharati Vidyapeeth University, Pune
3- Allahabad University, Allahabad
But, mostly reputed colleges like NITs do not provide lateral entries.
