Admission:

I also applied to Nirma University. I got there admission in the Electronics and Communication department, but I want admission in computer science, so I chose Pandit Deendayal Energy University over Nirma University. I also applied for NITs, but admission criteria of 75% in boards got me rejected. In my college, you can get admission through online mode. The eligibility criteria is changed every year, so you have to check the official website for eligibility. Our college accepts the Jee main score and the Gujaratcet score, and you can get admission through ACPC counselling.
