Hi Anant

Once you are in waiting list, there will be several rounds where the candidates will be given the option to get their names striked off from the list. If a candidate above you leaves the seat, they create place for another candidate. You should wait till the last round, for the possibility of getting a confirmed seat

Dear Aspirant,

Following is the eligibility for the UG courses:-

- Must have completed Class 12 with an aggregate of 75% (65% for SC/ ST/ PD categories) from a recognised board or passed an examination holding equivalent value
