Seats, scholarships and seat allotment
Admission to B.Tech programmes at all campuses is based on the AEEE rank or the JEE Main percentile. Candidates then register for CSAP, where seats are allotted on campus and course preferences, eligibility and rank. Scholarships (fee slabs 1 to 4) depend on rank, branch, seat availability and the number of applicants; the university states that more than 70% of seats are in the scholarship category, with seats earmarked separately for AEEE and JEE candidates. It states there is no cut-off or minimum rank for CSAP and no management quota.
