If you're SC category female aiming for NIT Calicut you'll need a seriously good rank for CSE like under 789 for other state seats or under 4674 for home state in 2025. So 80 percentile is far from enough to grab CS at NIT Calicut.

Admission to M.Tech in NIT Calicut is Chiefly located by scores in GATE or counseling of CCMT. But within this they also have a Self-Sponsored section in the M.Tech programs such as Computer Science and Engineering. In these seats one qualifies based on his or her performance in a written examination and/or interview by the concerned department. Thus, you could have a chance to make use of the self-sponsored scheme and receive your admission on the basis of their personal directed test and interview in spite of the low mark in GATE. Self-sponsored seats are the ones in which financial aid/stipend is usually not provided.
