SASTRA University Thanjavur Alumni

Dear Aspirant,

Sorry to say but you will not be able to get a seat.

It always depends on the competition for the seats at SASTRA. Sometimes you might, Sometimes you can’t. Below is the counseling status:

Let me share the counseling statuses in 2017. I secured AIR 1333 under stream 1. I had a friend whose AIR was 450 under stream 1. He was called on the first day-first session. I was called on the second day-first session. Now, let me be accurate, each session is conducted for 600 students and 2 sessions like this happen per day.

1. In the first session(his session), only 100 out of 600 came to the counseling. All of them took CSE and left.
2. But after my friend's session (i.e 2nd session), nearly 300–400 out of the next 600 members came to the counseling, taking away CSE, ECE, and IT, leaving behind some EEE and Mechanical seats.

Now, here’s the data after day 1 counseling regarding the number of seats left in various departments. These results were made available on the sastra website after day-1 counseling was over.

CSE : 0

ECE : 0

IT : 0

ICT: 4

EEE: 22

EYE: 37

Mech: 41

Civil: 48

Aerospace: 30

Biotech: 36

Chemical: don't remember

Mechatronics:20

Now, On day 2,  I can guarantee that 80 people went up for choice filling but only 20–30 people chose their seats because the others wanted only CSE or ECE and hence they left without choosing. The next 100 ( i.e., from 1300–1400) were called in groups of 27 and they were given choices to choose from.

EEE: 8

Mechanical: 10

Mechatronics: 16

EI: 36

Civil: 46

Aerospace: 30

Biotech: 36

Chemical: don't remember

EEE ends by 1100 and ECE by 700–800, and CSE by 400. But that day was different, somehow the odds were in my favor.

Extra Info: Here are some seat details I would like to give from what I have heard from others,

EEE was there until 1400 appx. ( my other friend was 1393 and chose EEE)

Mech was there until 1405–1410 ( I heard some parents getting disappointed when their child was just a few ranks from where Mechanical was over).

Mechatronics was there until 1550–1600.

and the rest, I just don't know…. :)

hope SASTRA aspirants find this informative. Don't take this year’s counseling for granted, these seats can vary next year.. who knows, maybe all core branches can get over by 1000.. several people who attend the counseling matter your result the most because’ the seats they choose affect your decision.

Feel free to ask more questions.

All The Best.

Hello,

There are two admissions streams, first.

JEE main scores plus Intermediate Score (70% seats) in Stream 1

Only Intermediate scores (30% seats) in Stream 2

You have a fair probability of getting into Sastra utilising stream 1 if your rank is around 1300 but your rank is larger. With this score, passing stream 2 is nearly impossible. Thus, you might obtain the branches below.

• Civil
• Biotechnology
• CE
• Additionally, several Integrated Programs, etc.

Thank You

Hello,

One of Sastra University's most well-known programmes is the B.Tech, which is available in 11 specialities. Candidates must take the JEE Main test and engage in the university's counselling process in order to be considered for B.Tech admissions at Sastra University.

Eligibility Criteria

• The candidate must have obtained a minimum cumulative grade of 60% in Physics, Math, Chemistry, Biotechnology, Computer Science, and Biology at the 12th grade level from any recognised board.
• The theory courses that students choose to pursue determine their eligibility for vocational disciplines.
• The second year of the B.Tech programme can be entered directly by applicants who have completed a diploma in engineering or technology (Lateral Entry).

Selection Criteria

• After a normalisation procedure, the candidates are admitted based on their JEE Main and XII-standard board scores.
• A merit list is made public for admission after normalisation.

So, if you give JEE exam, then with you 12th class and Jee rank you can can admit in the Sastra University.

Thank You
