Admission to the Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Computer Science and Engineering at the Islamic University of Science and Technology (IUST) primarily involves the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) percentile. Candidates typically engage in JEE counselling, with some opting for the self-finance quota if they do not secure a seat in the Open Merit (OM) category. This route may involve an additional financial commitment, around 200,000 INR, for those whose JEE rankings do not meet OM seat criteria.

Potential applicants are encouraged to visit the university's official website for application, which is described as straightforward aligned with typical procedures of similar institutions. Even those with moderate JEE percentiles can secure admission through more manageable pathways, given the limited options for such technical courses in Kashmir. The admission process is generally acknowledged for its accessibility, guided directly by the university, which simplifies the procedure further. Students interested specifically in the Computer Science stream, who are geographically or personally bound to the region, find IUST an attractive choice due to its quality offerings and available facilities.

As a result, the institution is a favorable option for local aspirants aiming to pursue B.Tech in this specialization.

An Honest Review

. I applied for JEE josaa counselling apart from this college, .I got admitted in the NIT srinagar however my branch was Mechanical which i was not intrested in . The admission process of this university was quite easy and similar to the rest of of the colleges . I Visited their website, applied for the course, got admitted there in both of the courses i had applied for i.e B. Arch and B.Tech CSE. But I chose CSE as it was what i was more inclined towards. . I had a good experience here overall with the studies however my mental health got disturbed a little bit

IUST is not as bad as it seems.

I did not apply for any other colleges because I wanted to opt of a degree in Computer Science and IUST is basically the only university in Kashmir that offers the said course with quality. I had scored 72 %ile in JEE but that did not bag me a seat in CSE OM, so, I decided to apply for Self Finiance seat. That cost me additional 200000 INR but I did get a seat in CSE.

All about iust

There are two colleges and universities where you can pursue this degree, but as compared to other colleges like SSM and Kashmir University, I found it reliable and admission process is very easy as you have to go there. Submit the documents after your exam is qualified for the degree.

A Scenic journey: My experience at IUST, Awantipora

I had to stay in Kashmir for personal reasons and couldn't study outside. That's why I choose Islamic University of Science and Technology as it was the best option available at the time. My other choices were Kashmir university and SSM college ,but after comparing the three I concluded that iust was better option for my education.

University Review

I applied to Kashmir University and my admission was confirmed there but I chose this college because it was comparatively of low distance than Kashmir University and administration of Islamic University of science and technology is very good compared to Kashmir University.
