Hello,

With a cutoff of 135.5, your ward does have a fair chance of securing admission to a Mechanical Engineering course through the Single Window Admission System, especially if you're open to considering self-financed or rural engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu. While top-tier government colleges usually require cutoffs above 190 for Open Category students, several colleges in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities accept students with cutoffs in the 130–160 range, particularly for those from reserved categories such as MBC, SC, or ST. The possibility of admission also improves based on the region and college preference, as some colleges in less competitive areas have slightly lower cutoff trends. If your ward belongs to a reserved category and you’re flexible with the choice of college location, there is a realistic chance of securing a seat in Mechanical Engineering.

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello,

A non-attending diploma in Mechanical Engineering (also known as part-time, distance, or correspondence diploma) is designed for working professionals or ITI graduates who wish to continue their education without attending regular full-time classes. After completing ITI in a relevant trade (such as Fitter, Turner, or Machinist), you are eligible for lateral entry into the second year of the diploma course through part-time mode, usually offered by state technical education boards or institutions like IGNOU, NIOS, or recognized polytechnics.

The fee structure for such programs is relatively affordable, usually ranging from Rs 8,000 to Rs 25,000 per year, depending on the college and state. Government polytechnics charge lower fees, while private institutes may have slightly higher costs. In total, students can expect to spend around Rs 20,000 to Rs 60,000 for the entire course.

Hope this helps. All the best!
