Thiruvananthapuram‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ IIST entry is possible only if you qualify through JEE Advanced. IIST considers admissions based on JEE Advanced ranks only. There is no separate entrance test for the institute. Once the results are out, you should definitely take part in IIST counselling by registering yourself and selecting the branches you want like Aerospace Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, or Engineering Physics. The seats are given strictly on the basis of merit and the rank you obtain in JEE Advanced, therefore a good score is necessary.

About the fee, IIST is a Department of Space organization, thus the entire fee structure is significantly less than that of most other engineering colleges. Students have to pay for tuition, hostel and other academic charges, but those who keep up with the required academic performance are given financial assistance which takes care of their tuition and main expenses. This makes the cost of studying at IIST very affordable.

Furthermore, you can use the Careers360 portal to get the latest and detailed information regarding IIST admissions, eligibility, cutoffs and counselling. They are always there to help engineering aspirants with their verified ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌guidance.

Hello,

To get a seat at IIST, you must first qualify for JEE Advanced and have at least 75% aggregate marks in Class 12. Then, you must apply through the IIST portal, participate in their counselling, and be selected based on your JEE Advanced score. The total undergraduate tuition fee is approx. INR 5.53 lakh, and hostel fees are around INR 23,750 per semester.

I hope it will clear your query!!
