Admission
I came to know about this university from one of my seniors. I filled the KIITEE exam on the University Portal- www.kiit.ac.in which was free of cost. it was in online mode due pandemic but now it is conducted in offline centres. Generally application form is released from december and there 4-5 phases. KIITEE exam contains 120 questions for 120 minutes. The difficulty level is easier than JEE Mains. Reservation benefits are only for Sc and St students as far as i know. after counselling, i got Btech course and Computer Science and Engineering branch and also received the allotment letter. Then we were called for induction program and it was a very fluent and easy process. the admission process is very much organised and thus no such improvements are needed.
