Institution and admission route
VIT Vellore B.Tech offers engineering choices that must be compared by branch, campus, curriculum, cost and the authorised admission route.
B.Tech programmes, branches and specialisations
Final branch names and combinations are those shown in the current seat matrix or admission brochure.
Eligibility, PCM and entrance requirement
- VITEEE 2026 general eligibility uses 60% PCM and at least 50% in Mathematics; the published relaxation uses a 50% aggregate for specified applicant groups.
- Obtain a valid VITEEE for the regular B.Tech admission process result where required.
- Meet category-specific eligibility and produce certificates in the current prescribed format.
- Verify programme-specific rules before assuming that a common engineering eligibility applies to every branch.
The qualifying-subject combination, minimum marks, year-of-passing and attempt limits can differ by authority and intake. The current official brochure is final.

Seats, quotas and previous cut-off context
Seats: Branch availability is shown during counselling; institute intake may change
Quota / reservation: Counselling uses VIT rank, programme/campus choice and fee category rather than JoSAA-style state quotas
| Cut-off view | Official previous-data context | Planning use |
|---|---|---|
| Branch / programme | VIT does not use a JoSAA-style public OR-CR table for every branch/category | Compare the same branch, pool and round in the official previous-year archive. |
| Category / quota | Counselling phase, rank, campus, programme and fee category affect availability | Compare the same branch, pool and round in the official previous-year archive. |
| Round / vacancy | Use the live counselling dashboard and official instructions for the final choice | Compare the same branch, pool and round in the official previous-year archive. |
VIT does not publish a JoSAA-style branch/category opening-and-closing-rank archive. Rank phase, campus, programme and tuition category interact during live counselling, so third-party cutoff tables are not presented as official.
Use the official counselling/admission portal for branch-wise, category-wise and round-wise previous cut-offs. Cross-check the additional official source.
Fees, hostel and scholarships
Fees vary by programme group and counselling category. Use VIT’s current programme-and-category fee table; hostel and mess are additional.
| Cost area | What to verify | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition fee | Semester or annual programme fee in the current schedule | May differ by institute, branch, category or admission route. |
| Hostel and mess | Room type, mess advance, utilities and refundable deposit | Campus residence is separate from tuition at many institutes. |
| One-time charges | Admission, institute, caution and alumni charges | Some are non-refundable and due at reporting. |
| Scholarships | Merit-cum-means, category, income and institute schemes | Eligibility, renewal and disbursement rules must be checked. |
Placements, internships, recruiters and campus
