    There are plenty of colleges which offer lateral entry in India but not possible in VIT. I don't remember when there was lateral entry last time in VIT. Very similar to VIT one college SRM do offer lateral entry so you can try your luck there. There are less number of seats in SRM so you need to apply at the earliest.
    Hope this helps.

Once the students are registered for the exam, they will have to book their VIT exam slots through the online process. After logging in, the students will have to choose their preferred slot from the available ones. The same exam slot will be given to the students. This is the reason the students should book their slots as soon as possible, so that they are given their preference.
