    Admissions at IIITDM Kancheepuram are based on entrance exams such as GATE which have different cutoffs according to category. OBC Category students should aim for a score/rank of 14681 in the first round. Two competitive M.Tech specialisation streams such as Computer Science and Engineering had 6002 and CSE (AI) had 6150. These scores can serve as a good benchmark to aim for.

    One can view the different Round 1 cutoffs for different specialisations in the table below:

You are still eligible for M.Tech admission at SIT Pune without GATE score. In this case, you will have to take an entrance test followed by a personal interview round. Based on the combined score of entrance exam and personal interview, you will get admission.

Pursuing an M.E. at Chandigarh University with a GATE Exam 2026 qualification can be beneficial for students aiming for research-oriented paths, including PhD programs. While GATE itself does not guarantee PhD admission, it strengthens a student's academic profile. Fellowship holders gain teaching and research exposure, which can support future doctoral applications. However, students who are not appearing for GATE 2026 can also build strong research profiles through projects, publications, and faculty guidance. GATE is an added advantage, not a requirement, for long-term academic growth.

No, a valid GATE Exam 2026 score is not required at the time of final admission confirmation at Chandigarh University. Admission confirmation depends on eligibility verification, document submission, and fee payment. GATE qualification is optional and relevant only for fellowship consideration. Students who are not appearing for GATE 2026 can complete the entire admission process without submitting a GATE score. Even students who plan to appear for GATE can confirm admission before results are announced. This policy helps students avoid delays and secure their seats early.

No, Chandigarh University does not require a GATE Exam 2026 scorecard at the time of application or admission. Students can apply and secure admission based on graduation marks alone. If you are planning to appear for GATE 2026, you may submit the scorecard later after results are declared, only if you wish to be considered for the fellowship. Students who are not appearing for GATE 2026 do not need to submit any GATE-related documents. This flexible process allows students to complete admissions without waiting for GATE results.

Chandigarh University uses the GATE exam 2026 score only for fellowship purposes and not for admission priority. The university clearly separates admission and financial support processes. Admission is based on graduation eligibility, while GATE scores are evaluated later for fellowship allocation. Students who are not appearing for GATE 2026 face no disadvantage during admission. Even a high GATE score does not guarantee faster or preferred admission. This transparent approach ensures equal opportunity for all applicants and prevents entrance exam rankings from influencing seat allocation.
