Yes, you can take direct admission into the 2nd year of a program under certain conditions. Here's what you need to know:

1. Lateral Entry

  • If you completed 1st year in a relevant program (e.g., BSc, BA, or BTech) and want to switch colleges or continue after a gap, you may apply for lateral entry in the 2nd year.
  • This is common in fields like engineering, nursing, or other professional courses .

2. Eligibility for Lateral Entry

  • Previous Qualification : You must have completed 1st-year coursework from a recognized institution.
  • Gap Justification : A valid reason for the gap (e.g., personal, financial, or medical issues) may be required.
  • Academic Continuity : Ensure your previous curriculum matches the 2nd-year program of the target college.

3. Steps for Admission

  1. Check Eligibility : Confirm that the target college allows lateral entry after a gap.
  2. Documents Needed :
    • 1st-year marksheet or transcript.
    • Migration certificate (if switching colleges).
    • Gap certificate (affidavit explaining the gap).
  3. Apply Directly : Submit your application to the college or university for 2nd-year entry.

4. Exceptions

  • If a gap is too long or 1st-year coursework is incomplete, you may need to restart from the 1st year.
  • Some institutions may not accept lateral entry after a gap, depending on their policies.

Hi,

Get admission in 2 years directly by passing 1st years . In this case some colleges are allowed for this but many college have entrance exam that you have to clear.

Also, some college are ins search relevant degrees like diploma or any other qualifications.
