Jadavpur University, Kolkata

If you are looking to take admission to the engineering stream in the second year through lateral entry and you must score at least 60% in their diploma

Engineering in Jadavpur University.

The council struck off the earlier criteria of at least 60% at the plus-two level or a minimum 60% in Class-X mathematics for  joint entrance examination for lateral entry (JELET) admissions to the state’s top technology institute.

The reason for the overhaul, they said, was that how could JU judge the merit of a diploma engineering student from the marks he/ she scored before studying the course.

Yes, you can definitely. Provided you pass your diploma with a minimum aggregate percentage of 60% general class. to get admitted into Jadavpur University you have to answer the JELET examination ( lateral entry examination) in the University itself. about 17% of seats are reserved for students from outside West Bengal region. So the suggestion is to obtain great score at the JELET exam and you will be admitted into your choice of branch based on your rank there will be a can counselling round there after.

Hi

It is rather a simple process, nothing much needs to be done. First of all you will have to go the college website and apply online for lateral entry. The course duration is only 3 years. Apply by paying some nominal application fee. After the application depending on the colege, the colege might conduct entrance test. Some coleges offer admission based on B. Tech/ B. E score. So then merit list will be prepared and based on your rank you will be alloted a seat.
