Hi Adhya! Congratulations on clearing JEE Advanced !

Based on your JEE Advanced scores:

• CRL Rank : 304880

• OBC-NCL Rank : 107412

Admission Possibilities in NITs and IIITs :

With your OBC-NCL rank of 107412 , here’s what you can expect:

• Top NITs (like NIT Trichy, Warangal, Surathkal, etc.) and IIITs (like IIIT Hyderabad) will likely be out of reach for branches like CSE , as they typically require a much lower rank.

• However, for lower-ranked NITs and IIITs , you may have a chance for branches like:

Information Technology (IT)

Software Engineering

Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE)

Some NITs that might still offer you a seat in IT or related branches are:

• NIT Durgapur

• NIT Goa

• NIT Sikkim

• NIT Mizoram

• NIT Nagaland

• NIT Puducherry

IIITs :

For IIITs , the competition is high for CSE , but you may still have a chance in newer IIITs like:

• IIIT Kota

• IIIT Bhagalpur

• IIIT Nagpur

• IIIT Kalyani

Other Good Options:

If you are interested in CSE or related branches , here are a few private universities that offer strong computer science programs:

• VIT Vellore

• SRM Institute of Science and Technology

• Shiv Nadar University

• Amrita University

• Manipal University

These institutions offer CSE , Software Engineering , and related branches and have a high reputation, with good campus placements.

Summary:

• Top NITs and IIITs : Unlikely for CSE with your rank, but branches like IT, Software Engineering, and ECE may be possible in lower-ranked institutions.

• Private Universities : You have a strong chance in institutions like VIT , SRM , Shiv Nadar , and Amrita .

With a rank of 699164, securing admission in the Computer Science (CS) branch at top-tier engineering colleges may be challenging through centralized counseling or government quota.

Hii,

Best MP colleges for CS with startup vibe:

1. IIT Indore: Top CS, great startup hub, incubation center. Needs high JEE rank.
2. SGSITS Indore: Good CS, cheap fees, startup cell. Join via JEE Main.
3. IET DAVV Indore: Solid CS, startup support, low cost. JEE Main entry.
4. LNCT Bhopal: Nice CS, startup help, easy admission.
5. Medi-Caps Indore: Modern CS, startup events, private. Indore’s startup scene rocks!

To get into the Computer Science (CS) branch of a B.Tech program, you generally need to qualify for entrance exams like JEE Main, JEE Advanced, or state-level engineering entrance exams. These exams are the primary route for admission to most top engineering colleges in India, including NITs and other prestigious institutions.

If you have mistakenly selected "Bachelor of Engineering CS - Lateral Entry" while filling the CUCET (Chandigarh University) form but you do not want lateral entry, then there is no need to worry. You can follow the following steps to correct this mistake:

• Contact the University Helpline or Admission Cell immediately. Explain your problem in detail on the helpline number or email ([email protected]) given on the official website of Chandigarh University.
• Tell them that it was a genuine mistake during form-filling and you want to apply for regular B.E./B.Tech CS.
• In most cases, the university allows correction or manually edits your application.
• Also, you can fill a new form if required, but it is better to confirm with the university first.

Important Tip: Always check all the details carefully once before final submission, so that such mistake does not happen again.

. Understanding Your Profile First

• You have a 97.4 percentile in JEE Main 2025 — a really excellent score da!

• Your EWS rank is 5656 , which is strong enough for many good private universities.

• You are from Madhya Pradesh but aiming for admission into PES University , Bangalore (both RR campus and EC campus).

• PES accepts JEE Main scores mainly for some quota (Management quota, PESSAT + JEE quota).

2. How PES Admission Process Works Through JEE Main

• PES University primarily conducts its own exam called PESSAT , but it also accepts JEE Main ranks .

• In JEE Main quota, percentile and EWS rank both are considered for shortlisting.

• Admissions via JEE score are subject to seat availability after PESSAT counselling.

3. Can You Get CSE, CS (Specialisations), or ECE?

• CSE (Computer Science Engineering):

  • Very highly demanded at PES.

  • Usually closes around 95-98 percentile .

  • With 97.4 percentile and 5656 EWS rank , you have a fair chance for CSE, especially if you apply early .

• CS Specialisations (like AI, Data Science, Cybersecurity):

  • Slightly easier than pure CSE.

  • Many CS specialisations close around 94–96 percentile , so your chance is even higher here .

• ECE (Electronics and Communication Engineering):

  • Seats generally remain available up to 90-94 percentile .

  • Definitely you will get ECE with your percentile without much difficulty.

4. Important Points You Must Remember

• Apply Early : PES fills JEE quota seats quickly; so apply as soon as counselling opens .

• Preference Order : Always select CSE → CS (Specialisations) → ECE while applying.

• Cutoff Changes Every Year : Cutoffs slightly vary based on competition, number of seats, etc.

• If not in RR campus , you can also check Electronic City (EC) Campus which has excellent branches too.

Hello there,

If your son freezes the Bharti Vidyapeeth seat in the third round and pays the fee , it locks the seat and essentially means that he accepts the offer from that college.

Here’s what you need to know:

1. JOSAA Freeze Option : Once you choose to "freeze" a seat and pay the fee, you are not eligible for further rounds of counseling, including spot rounds . This is because freezing signifies that you are satisfied with the allocated seat, and you're accepting it, preventing participation in further rounds.
   
   

2. Options After Freezing : If your son is serious about MSIT CS and doesn't want to risk losing that opportunity, it’s better not to freeze the seat at Bharti Vidyapeeth. Instead, you can opt for:

   • Float or Slide options, which would allow you to retain the Bharti Vidyapeeth seat and try for MSIT in subsequent rounds.
     
     

   • Spot round participation : If you freeze, you cannot participate in spot rounds. So, do not freeze the seat unless you're absolutely sure you want to take it and give up on MSIT.
     
     Suggestion:

To ensure eligibility for MSIT and also keep Bharti Vidyapeeth as a backup, I would recommend not freezing the seat in the third round. Opt for the float option if possible and keep exploring through the next rounds, including the spot rounds . This will allow your son to try for MSIT while securing a seat at Bharti Vidyapeeth as a backup.

If you do freeze and pay the fee, you will lose eligibility for the spot rounds, so weigh the options carefully.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.

With a GATE CS score of 335 (OBC) :

• Unlikely to get Osmania University M.Tech in CS, IT, or Cyber Security via GATE (cutoffs are much higher, around 750).

• You can try through TS PGECET (Osmania accepts PGECET scores too).

• Consider other state universities or private colleges with lower GATE cutoffs.

• Prepare for TS PGECET for better chances in Cyber Security or IT at Osmania.

With a JEE Main rank of 2,48,181 in the General category, it’s tough to get top colleges for B.Tech/B.E in CS or AI. But don’t worry—you can still get admission in private colleges or through state counseling like in UP, MP, or Rajasthan, where cutoffs are slightly lower. Since you may qualify for EWS, you should definitely use that in JoSAA or state counseling. Try colleges like NIET, GL Bajaj, LPU, or Amity for CS or AI branches.
