Admission:

I have CIWGC or NRI quota so I actually aimed for top NITs in South, namely Trichy, Warangal, Surathkal and Calicut. I got caught in the 27s2 shift of JEE 24' which wrecked my dreams because my percentile went down. I still planned on pursuing non circuital courses like civil in NIT Trichy and I was eligible too but I spoke with some professionals online and they strictly advised me not to do anything other than circuitals even if it were the top instituitions. I could've gotten circuitals in some other NITs but parents preferred I stay in my homestate Tamilnadu. So I applied and got CSE IITDM Chennai, CSE/ECE at PSG Tech and lastly, ECE at College of Engineering Guindy, Anna University. Out of the lot, Anna University is the best and it's Chennai so blindly said yes when I got this

Admission:

The admission process was so simple for both regular and lateral entry students. The must attain certain cutoff to get admission in CEG. The diploma students can join as lateral entries and they too need certain percentage to get admission. Every department has a specific cut off percentage to join in them. The students can join through counciling process. The counciling process will held separately for regular and lateral entry students. The college fees will be reduced uf the student is a first graduate or belongs to sc/st community. Scholarships will be provided for students based on their parents income or through academic performance. The students should score more percentage because then only they can get admission in the department they want to study.
