Hi aspirant,

There is nothing such as free seat in Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore. Admissions to all the BTech courses across the various campuses of the University is done based upon the candidates performance in VITEEE. The fee structure of the course depends upon the branch you are opting for and your rank in the entrance examination. There are five different fee category at the college the fee for category one is lowest and is around 2 lakhs per annum while the fee for category 5 being the highest and is around 5 lakhs per annum. Also I want to add that it is not possible to predict your category even your marks is known because it completely depends upon the choices made by other candidates and your performance among them.

For example for the same rank you will get Computer Science and Engineering in category 3 or 4 while for the same rank you will get mechanical engineering in category one or two easily so it is completely the game of preferences.

Hope it helps!
