Hello,

Yes, you can still receive counseling for engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu after taking French instead of Tamil in your 11th and 12th standard. Here's how it works:

  • Tamil Nadu engineering admissions (TNEA) do not require Tamil as a subject.
  • You must meet eligibility criteria: completion of 12th with relevant subjects (Maths, Physics, Chemistry).
  • You need to score the required marks in the relevant subjects.
  • TNEA counseling is based on your 12th-grade marks and the Tamil Nadu Government norms.
  • French as a language won't affect your engineering admission eligibility.

Hope it helps !

Hello there,

Yes, you can participate in engineering college counseling in Tamil Nadu after studying French instead of Tamil in 11th and 12th standard under the Samacheer Kalvi board. However, there are a few important points to consider:

  1. Eligibility Criteria : You need to meet the minimum eligibility criteria for counseling, including the required percentage in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Language choice does not directly impact engineering admission.

  2. Community Quota : If you belong to a specific reserved category, ensure you have all the required certificates for availing the quota benefits.

  3. Language Preference : While Tamil is not mandatory for engineering admissions, studying Tamil may give preference points in specific state schemes or quota seats.

Check the official Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions (TNEA) guidelines or contact the counseling authority for any specific concerns about your situation.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.
