With a VITEEE 2025 rank of 54,067, your prospects for securing ECE (Electronics & Communication Engineering) or EEE (Electrical & Electronics Engineering) at VIT Chennai under Category 3 fall into the “possible but not guaranteed” range. Statistically, EEE tends to have a slightly higher cutoff than ECE, so your chances there are marginally better. Securing ECE is more competitive, and would likely require the cutoff to shift higher than in previous years.

Should Category 3 not be available to you, Categories 4 and 5 remain options, though these will involve a significantly higher fee structure.

Recommended steps:

- Actively participate in Phase 2 counselling. Early engagement can make a difference.

- Prioritize ECE as your first choice, with EEE as a backup, and submit your Chennai campus preferences promptly.

Please bear in mind that Category 3 fees are substantially higher than those for Categories 1 or 2. Seat allocation also varies annually, based on applicant numbers, their preferences, and dropout rates.
