Category-B admissions at VFSTR are allotted on a merit basis for candidates who have secured 60% or above marks in Class 12 or equivalent qualifying examination. Unlike Category-A, where seats are granted through entrance tests such as VSAT, EAMCET, or JEE, Category-B seats are reserved for students who meet the academic merit criteria without entrance examination requirements.
The tuition fees for students admitted under Category-B are higher than Category-A due to the merit-quota structure followed by the university.
