Hi dear candidate,

You can opt for lateral entry in BCA (2 year) if you done a 1 year diploma after class 12th or 3 year diploma after class 10th.

You can look for colleges like LPU, MCMT, CT University etc.

Keep in mind that very few colleges provide lateral entry to BCA as compared to BTech.

BEST REGARDS

For BCA lateral entry, you can join directly in the second year of the BCA program if you have completed a relevant diploma or an equivalent qualification like a BSc in Computer Science, IT, or related fields. Many colleges offer lateral entry admissions based on your previous coursework and marks.

To proceed, check the eligibility criteria of colleges you’re interested in, as requirements and admission processes may vary. Usually, you need to apply through the college’s admission portal or through state-level lateral entry counseling if available.

Lateral entry is a great way to save time since you skip the first year and join the course midway, but make sure your previous degree/diploma is recognized by the college or university offering BCA lateral admission.
