PSV College of Engineering and Technology Krishnagiri BE {Lateral}: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. No. The B.E. degree certificate issued by Anna University does not distinguish between lateral entry and regular-entry graduates. Both receive the same degree in the same branch. The lateral entry route is simply an alternate admission pathway for Diploma holders and carries full equivalence for GATE, PSU recruitment, and postgraduate admission purposes.

Ans. Registration is complete. The next step is the rank list, which is expected to be published on June 29, 2026 at tneaonline.org. Once the rank is out, you will participate in the TNEA Lateral Entry counselling rounds in July 2026 and fill branch and college preferences, including PVSCET Krishnagiri. Keep your Diploma mark sheets and category certificates ready for document upload during counselling.

Ans. Branch changes after allotment are generally not permitted under Anna University’s lateral entry process. Your seat is allotted to a specific B.E. branch through TNEA counselling. Choose your branch preference carefully during the counselling round. Contact PVSCET’s admissions office to confirm their internal policy on any exceptions.

Ans. Anna University specifies the eligible Diploma disciplines for each B.E. lateral entry branch. Generally: Civil Engineering lateral accepts Civil or related Diploma; CSE lateral accepts Computer Science, IT, or related; EEE lateral accepts Electrical, EEE, or related; ECE lateral accepts Electronics, ECE, or related; Mechanical lateral accepts Mechanical or related Diploma. Confirm the exact eligible Diploma list from the TNEA 2026 information brochure at tneaonline.org.

Ans. Yes. B.E. Lateral Entry graduates from PVSCET are fully eligible to appear for GATE, as the degree is an Anna University B.E. with the same standing as regular-entry graduates. A valid GATE score enables admission to M.E./M.Tech programmes and direct recruitment at PSUs such as TNEB, BHEL, SAIL, and others that accept GATE-based applications.

Ans. Yes. B.E. Lateral Entry graduates hold a full Anna University B.E. degree, which is accepted for M.E./M.Tech admission through TANCET or GATE, and for MBA admission through TANCET or other management entrance tests. There is no restriction on postgraduate programme admission based on lateral entry status. Verify specific eligibility requirements with the target institution before applying.
