Admission:

There are different modes of admission in our college like Jee rank, 12th standard marks, etc. There is also a mode for students from foreign countries. You can find all the details about it from www.iiit.ac.in. There are no reservations based on caste. The admission process is a little bit hectic since you have to pay around 2 lacs if you have a course and have to wait for other rounds for upgradation. Also, there is 20,000 rupees as an initial admission cost.

On what basis do you get admission in IIIT Hyderabad?

Tushar RanaB.Tech from IIIT Hyderabad

To get admission into regular B.Tech at IIIT Hyderabad, you need to score minimum 250 marks in JEE Mains. You also need a good percentage in 12th boards, and more than 85 marks in Physics, Chemistry and Maths. The subject-wise cutoff is usually 85 or more for all the three. As for dual degree admissions, you need to clear UGEE and a subsequent interview. Make sure to check the 12th marks requirement for the same, if any. The college also intakes a limited number of dual degree students through lateral admissions.

IIIT Hyderabad does not offer any reservation, and it is quite difficult to get into.

How many students apply for IIIT Hyderabad Lateral Entry Programme?

Gaurav Mishrastudied at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad

One of my close friends applied for the lateral entry program at IIIT Hyderabad in 2018 and shared the experience of the entire process. Her examination center had students from Raipur and Bhilai regions. The total number of students in the hall was 70.

On average, there were 50 centers, and considering each center had 100 students, the total number of students who appeared for the IIIT Hyderabad Lateral Entry Programme was around 5000. In her examination center, only 45 students were shortlisted for interview, out of which only 37 students actually attended the interview.

Why should I apply for both IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad?

IIIT Bangalore and IIIT Hyderabad are top institutions.

IIIT Hyderabad competes with the top IITs. The coding culture over there is top notch and the competitive spirit among peers makes you work very hard. The faculty is hardworking and inspires students to become good professionals. Students are encouraged to create their own successful startups like SETU,Crypsis, Synovel etc. IIIT H intakes students purely on merit basis, there is no provision of reservation during admissions.

Sir P.J. Narayanan, the professor and current Director of IIIT Hyderabad is known for his work in Computer Vision, Computer Graphics, and Parallel Computing on the GPU. You will learn a lot under his guidance.

IIIT Bangalore has a great coding culture and is known for its academics. Its students participate in the ACM-ICPC finals.

Both IIIT Hyderabad and IIIT Bangalore are really good institutions, and you should apply to both so that you get the opportunity to study in either of them.

What is the lateral entry for IIIT Hyderabad?

Anupama Chauhanstudied at International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad

Lateral Admission means getting admission in the mid of the session from another college. Many students pursuing BE or BTech in other colleges get lateral admission into IIIT Hyderabad in the second year. For this, they need to go through a separate admission process. This process includes a written entrance exam followed by an interview.

Moreover, Lateral Entry students are offered a very limited variety of streams like

CSD: B.Tech + M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering.
ECD: B.Tech + M.S. in Electronics and Communication Engineering.

Also, it’s important to note that Lateral Entry gets admission in the second year only. So irrespective of which year you belonged to, you will have to study again from the second year.

This mode of admission gives a second chance to those who couldn’t clear the exam initially.

Should I apply for the 2nd round with a percentile of 99.233rd at IIIT Hyderabad?

Aishwarya ShastriLives in Hyderabad

No, I don’t think it’s wise to apply for the 2nd round with a percentile of 99.233rd at IIIT Hyderabad. Based on the cutoffs, the minimum percentile required to get IIIT Hyderabad CSE is 99.78 whereas for ECE is 98.87. Even if you end up getting ECE in the subsequent rounds you will end up losing a lot of money. Moreover, paying a sum of 20k just for a single round is not justified especially when your chances are slim.

Additionally, only half of the fee is considered an advance tuition fee. So you will lose a lot of money whether you get admission or not. It’s better to try another IIIT or a NIT than IIIT Hyderabad. But if you are adamant, you can surely try your luck!

How much should one get in the JEE Mains exam to get admission to IIIT Hyderabad?

Adinath JainStudied at IIIT Hyderabad

However, to get admission to IIIT Hyderabad, candidates need to clear the JEE Main exam and secure a good rank in it. Generally, the cutoff for IIIT Hyderabad through JEE Main is relatively high. For the year 2021, the cutoff for admission to IIIT Hyderabad through JEE Main for Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) was 1064.

It is important to note that the cutoff varies every year depending on various factors. Hence, it is recommended to aim for a higher score in JEE Main to increase your chances of getting admission to IIIT Hyderabad.
