Hi!

With a rank of 68,975 in VITEEE, getting CSE in VIT Chennai is unlikely — its CSE cut-off is usually within the top 20,000–25,000 ranks. However:

• VIT Bhopal: Yes, you have a good chance of getting CSE.
• VIT Amaravati: Also possible for CSE at your rank.

Both Bhopal and Amaravati campuses are newer but still offer good facilities, industry tie-ups, and placements. If location is not a big factor for you, these campuses can be a smart choice to get your desired branch.

Thank you, and all the best for your admission!

Hi Student,

Thank you for reaching out!

With a VITEEE rank of 1374 in Category 2 for Phase 2 counseling in 2025, securing a B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) specialization at VIT Vellore is possible , despite missing Phase 1 .

Yes, you can give the same course (e.g., Biotechnology) in different categories with different priorities in VIT choice filling .

• VIT allows you to select the same branch under different fee categories (Category 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) in different priorities.

• This is a common strategy used by students to improve their chance of getting the desired branch, even if it's in a higher fee category.

For more details, you can refer to VIT counseling guide at:

With a VITEEE 2025 rank of 10,099 , securing admission to the Biotechnology program at VIT Vellore under Category 1 is unlikely. Based on the latest data, the expected Category 1 cutoff rank for Biotechnology at VIT Vellore ranges between 14,200 and 14,500 . (https://www.collegedekho.com/news/vit-vellore-category-1-expected-cutoff-rank-2025-65450/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

Your rank positions you well within the expected cutoff for Category 2 admissions in Biotechnology.
Consider applying to VIT Chennai , VIT-AP , or VIT Bhopal .

VITEEE Cutoff 2024 (Expected) - Category wise Cutoff

The Smart Manufacturing specialization in Mechanical Engineering at VIT Vellore, especially when combined with a minor in AI & ML, can offer a strong interdisciplinary profile with good career and higher studies prospects. Here’s a detailed look at the scope from both an academic and industry point of view:

At VIT, this specialization likely includes:

Advanced manufacturing processes

Industrial automation and robotics

IoT in manufacturing

Digital twin and cyber-physical systems

Data analytics for predictive maintenance

With a VITEEE 2025 rank of 54,067, your prospects for securing ECE (Electronics & Communication Engineering) or EEE (Electrical & Electronics Engineering) at VIT Chennai under Category 3 fall into the “possible but not guaranteed” range. Statistically, EEE tends to have a slightly higher cutoff than ECE, so your chances there are marginally better. Securing ECE is more competitive, and would likely require the cutoff to shift higher than in previous years.

Should Category 3 not be available to you, Categories 4 and 5 remain options, though these will involve a significantly higher fee structure.

Recommended steps:

- Actively participate in Phase 2 counselling. Early engagement can make a difference.

- Prioritize ECE as your first choice, with EEE as a backup, and submit your Chennai campus preferences promptly.

Please bear in mind that Category 3 fees are substantially higher than those for Categories 1 or 2. Seat allocation also varies annually, based on applicant numbers, their preferences, and dropout rates.
