Good for aviation - overall average.

Placements: Our program has a good record of placing students in companies like Indigo, Air India, etc. Many students from our senior batch have secured full-time positions, while even second-year students have obtained part-time jobs on campus. While the number of companies visiting our college is limited, those that do tend to be high-quality employers, offering opportunities to a select group of students.

Overall, it is a good college with a nice environment.

Placements: Most students in aviation don't depend on the placements provided by the college. Only a few attend the campus interviews for placements because they offer basic pay jobs at IndiGo Airlines. IndiGo is currently the only recruiting company for aviation. They don't provide internships here.

No, you will not be eligible for the MBA course at VELS Institute if you haven't appeared for any entrance exam. You have to first achieve at least 50% in graduation and then appear in any one of the accepted exams, namely, MAT, CAT, TANCET, and XAT.

VELS University generally does not accept offline applications. Students have to submit an application at the university's official site only. However, students may connect with the admission counsellors to know about the offline submission of forms - if any.

VELS University gives admissions on both merit and entrance basis. Students can check the programme-wise eligibility first before applying. The university conducts VEE for some of its courses, such as BTech, MCA, MPharma, and more. Exams like CAT/ XAT/ MAT/ TANCET are also accepted.
