Thapar University

Thapar mainly offers B.Tech through 10+2 (PCM) route, not lateral entry into all branches. And aerospace isn't a standard core branch there.

What you can do:

• If you want Thapar → go through 12th (PCM) + JEE route
• Or look for colleges that offer lateral entry after diploma (but even there, branch change to aerospace can be tricky)

So yes, possible path exists — but not directly from your current diploma into aerospace at Thapar.

If aerospace is your goal, better to plan the path carefully from here.

Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology's alumni work across various fields. Some of the fields are Engineering, Media and Communication, Entertainment, etc. Some of the notable alumni are:

• Deepak Vinayak is an Indian Australian community leader from Melbourne. He was appointed as the People of Australia Ambassador by Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard in 2012 and 2013.

Thapar University has various schools and departments. The names of the various schools of study at Thapar University, Patiala, are listed in the table below:

Honestly, with 91%ile and 90+ in boards, you've got a decent shot at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology.

CSE core might be tough at that percentile, but branches like ECE, Electrical, Mechanical, or some newer specialisations are definitely possible.

It'll depend on counselling rounds and cutoffs that year, but you're very much in the game. Don't stress too much.

Thapar University is one of the top college choices for MCA course. The college offers the latest curriculum. The teaching methadology is focused on practical learning rather than theory based learning. Some of the top companies that recruit students for MCA course are Rapido, Insurance Dekho, DotPe, Digital XForce, Tata Motors  and more. The college has dedicated placement cell which makes it ideal for students. 

Short answer — yes, it's possible in some cases, but it depends on the branch and year.

Thapar fills:

• Major seats through JEE Main

• Some seats through 12th PCM merit (board marks category)

If your PCM percentage is strong (usually 90%+ for safer side), you can compete in the board merit category. But for top branches like CSE/COE, it's still very competitive even through boards.

So yes, you can apply without JEE — but your 12th marks need to be good.

Bro 91.1 percentile is solid 👍 not crazy high, but definitely workable.

For Thapar:

• CSE/COE is honestly tough at that percentile.

• ENC/ECE maybe borderline.

• Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Chemical — you've got a decent shot.

• If you have Punjab quota, your chances improve a lot.

It really depends on competition this year, but yes — TIET is possible. Don't lose hope.

If you tell me your category + Punjab or outside, I'll give you a more real estimate.
