Hello Aspirant,

It is possible to apply for admission into other colleges with a backlog. Most universities allow for take admission to a student with pending backlogs, but you must clear your backlog within the time frame (in most cases, before the final year, or per the rules of your new college). Since your 5th-sem exam will be in December, you can apply as a student now - provided the new college is informed and you find out if there are any eligibility criteria regarding backlogs.

Hello,

Yes, it's possible for you to take admission in a college with a backlog in your 5th semester. Especially if the admission process starts before your  backlog clearing exam. But still, specific rules are based on colleges and programs.

I hope it will clear your query!!
