Admission to the Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Mechatronics Engineering at Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT) is based on the Manipal Entrance Test (MET). Applicants must achieve a minimum of 50% aggregate marks in their class 12 board exams, although some reviews suggest a 60% threshold in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The MET is generally held twice a year, typically in April and May. The exam comprises questions from English, Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, bearing a moderate difficulty level, slightly easier than the JEE Mains.
Candidates are provided with two attempts, with the best score considered for admission. Cutoffs for popular branches like Computer Science are significantly competitive. Admission is merit-based with no reservation benefits available but an NRI quota exists. Application forms, fees of approximately INR 2000, and detailed timeline are available on the official MAHE website. The entire application and counseling process is transparent and conducted online, with multiple rounds of counseling determining branch allotment based on MET ranks.
While students appreciate the smooth admission process, some suggest faster declaration of results and more response from administrative staff. Scholarships are available for high-ranking students in MET, and significant fee concessions are offered for students with family income under INR 8 lakh annually through certain schemes. Management quota admissions, if any, involve substantially higher costs.
