Hello Ishika,

Since you have done a Diploma in CS and had Humanities in 10+2 , your eligibility for B.Tech in CS depends on the admission criteria of different colleges.

1. Eligibility for B.Tech

• Lateral Entry (Direct 2nd Year Admission): You can apply for B.Tech in CS via LEET (Lateral Entry Entrance Tests) in many states and universities.
  
  
• Regular B.Tech (1st Year Admission): Some colleges may allow diploma holders, but JEE Mains and CUET UG mainly require PCM in 12th for B.Tech admission.
  
  2. Entrance Exams for Better Colleges

• LEET Exams (For Lateral Entry): IPU CET (Delhi), WB JELET (West Bengal), AP ECET, TS ECET, etc.
  
  
• JEE Mains & CUET UG: Mostly require PCM in 12th, so you might not be eligible for them.
  
  
• Private Universities: VITEEE (VIT), SRMJEEE (SRM), and other universities have different eligibility rules—some accept diploma holders.
  
  3. Alternative Options

If you can’t get into B.Tech CS, you can also consider BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) or B.Sc. CS, which have similar career opportunities in IT.
