Hi aspirant,

At first congratulations on the start of your journey at Vellore Institute of technology. Yes you can change your branch from mechanical engineering to Information technology or any others through the student program migration window.

This window is available after the end of first and second semesters respectively any student eligible for it can apply for it by filling up the form available at the institution itself. The number of transfers is 2 percent of the total seats available in the program. You will get an email after the first semester explaining the complete procedure.

Note- You will need a CGPA of 8.5 and even higher to be able to complete migration as there is tough competition in that window and transfers are merit based.

Hope it helps!!
