On Question asked by student community
Hello
As your question is not specific and it is not clear, I can guide you based on the information.
For M.Tech Computer Science at VIT (2025–26), the official SC category cutoff has not been released yet. Admission is mainly through VITMEE or a valid GATE score, followed by counselling.
SC candidates usually get relaxation in the eligibility criteria as per VIT norms.
Based on past trends, SC cutoffs are lower than the General category, but depend on seat availability and campus.
For the exact cutoff, you should check the VIT official counselling portal once the results are announced.
You can refer to the link I am attaching below for more details and information. You just need to click on the link, and after that, it will redirect you to a page that contains all the related information. Click Here
Hi Subham
No, to get admission in VIT for B.Tech in CSE, AI, you need to have Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as compulsory subjects in Class 12th. If you're a student of science and have subjects like Physics, Chemistry and Biology, then you're eligible for the Biotechnology program, which requires a different set of exams.
Some private colleges allow students who have Physics, Chemistry and Biology in Class 12th and want to pursue B.Tech in CSE AI. I hope this information helps you.
Thank you.
