Since Sastra University is one of the very good Engineering colleges the cutoffs for CSE would be high. However Sastra University never discloses the cutoffs so it is hard to pinpoint what score in JEE might fetch you a seat. It also depends on your class 12 marks.

Admission procedure is based on two streams

(1) Stream 1 (based on JEE(Main) 2018 scores and +2 Marks) for 70% of seats

(2) Stream 2 (based on +2 marks) for 30% of seats

 

Stream 1 Admission: Applicants under stream 1 will be admitted to 70% of the seats based on JEE (Main) 2018 scores and normalized +2 marks.  The weightage for JEE Main scores and +2 marks will be 25% & 75% respectively. The aggregate JEE Main score and normalized +2 aggregate will be taken together as per the weightage and applicants will be ranked based on the resultant combined score.

 

For example: If a student secures a JEE Main Score of 185 and normalized +2 aggregate is 95%, the combined score of the student will be (0.25*185) + (0.75*95) = 117.5

 

The combined score of all students will be used to determine the SASTRA Rank and admission will be based on the SASTRA Rank secured.

 

Stream 2 Admission: Applicants under Stream 2 will be admitted based on their normalized aggregate +2 or its equivalent marks. This is for 30% of the total seats. To bring all candidates from different examining authorities/ boards in to the same scale of comparison and to create a list in the order of merit, the +2 or its equivalent aggregate marks will be normalized. A first rank student of each board is considered to have obtained 100% mark and aggregate mark of all other students of the board is normalized with reference to that of the first rank student. For example, if the first rank is 97% and an applicant’s aggregate is 90% then the applicant’s normalized percentage is 92.78 (90/97x100). A merit list is drawn based on the normalized percentage for making admissions for the 30% of the total seats.

 

Note: 1) Applicants are allowed to attend counselling for stream 2 even if they are admitted under Stream 1 and can change branch, if they wish to.

Chamces for CSE in Sastra arevery low at this score for CSE specially.

Sastra University also considers class12th marks with 75% weightage and 25%weightage is given to JEE Mains.

If your cumulative score is above 140 then you shall have good chances.
