Candidates seeking first-year admission must be Madhyamik qualified or equivalent. JEXPO (Joint Entrance Examination for Polytechnics) administered by the West Bengal State Council of Technical Education is the best mode of admission. The vocational and the rest of the ITI students will be inducted by the Vocational Lateral Entry Test (VOCLET) into the 2nd year.

  1. Check Eligibility Criteria: The basic eligibility criteria for admission into the college should be checked by candidates, which consists of having completed Madhyamik (10th standard) to gain entry for first year or having undergone vocational courses/ITI for lateral entry.

  2. Entrance Exam Registration: Joint Entrance Examination for Polytechnics (JEXPO) for first-year admission and Vocational Lateral Entry Test (VOCLET) for lateral entry, both conducted by the West Bengal State Council of Technical Education.

  3. Entrance Examination: Candidates have to sit for either JEXPO or VOCLET as per the schedule published by the examining authority.

  4. Result Declaration: The candidates have to wait for the results of the entrance examinations.

  5. Counseling Registration: For those who qualify in the entrance examination, make sure you register for the counseling process as per the instruction from the West Bengal State Council of Technical Education.
